Prestige vs Happiness!? Please Help!

<p>“I’ve yet to tour UVa (that happens next week) but I’m torn between the two schools!”</p>

<p>There’s no reason to make any decisions until you have seen UVa. Colleges are like picking a boy/girlfriend or spouse…there are a lot of little factors that come into play that are tough to quantify or articulate. Just because one looks good “on paper” or in pro/con lists, it doesn’t mean that’s the one you will fall in love with. During or after your visit to UVa your decision will probably become very easy.</p>
