Can your family afford to pay for an out-of-state college? Your cost estimates look a little low to me, but let’s say the difference is $20,000 per year (excluding travel expenses to Oregon). That’s an extra 80K over 4 years. Is Oregon State’s program worth an extra $80K? Are your parents willing to pay $180K for an undergrad education? That’s the first thing you need to find out.

Going to TAMU would not be like high school, IMO. Being so large, you may rarely run into your high school classmates. Once you are in your major, your classes will all be in the same area, so the campus will seem much smaller.

My personal opinion is you are fortunate to have such a great in-state option. If money is no object, however, then you have the luxury of picking the one you feel suits you best.
