One thing to consider is if attending UA will allow you to afford more expensive activities than if you attended another school while still saving your family money. It’s not uncommon for students to be admitted to their dream school, but are not able to afford much beyond the most basic costs of attendance. While there are many free or inexpensive things to do on most any college campus, it helps to have the money to be able to treat oneself every once in awhile. If attending a specific school which offers most everything you want means that you’d be able to graduate debt free, you have a very significant incentive to choose that school.

Since you mentioned the presence of lots of women as a factor in considering another school, it’s worth noting that there are a lot of smart, beautiful women at UA.
