Should I have eliminated these schools on my list due to financial reasons?

<p>My roommate is from East Lansing. She’s never gone home and she said it’s a completely new experience since she’s not living at home. It would be no different to her if she went OOS because either way it is away from home. </p>

<p>Just saying, it’s good to have MSU as a fall back. Sorry you hate the area so much.</p>
