<p>Well, congratulations on your many acceptances. If you are just moving to California are you sure that you will get in-state tuition for the first year? Sometimes states put a hold on in-state residency for one year. The schools are going to feel very different from each other. Purdue is a huge school while Rose Hulman is tiny. Do you feel like you might thrive in one environment versus the other? I’d be careful comparing salaries - the Rose figure sounds a bit high but salaries can be skewed tremendously depending upon the location where graduates wind up working. </p>
