Thanks @BooBooBear. I pointed that out to her. She said she didn’t think she’d miss studying abroad if she was at Emory, but at least I warned her! The problem is that we let her tour Emory on a perfect spring day 2 years ago before she’d seen any other college and it has been her gold standard ever since. She did what we told her she had to do and earned the scholarship that makes it affordable, so it’s hard to discourage her now.

She prefers the size and I know she also likes the “prestige” of the Emory name. But, I’m trying to figure out how much value there is in the Emory name and experience, particularly in the neuroscience field. When she looks at the numbers, I can see her wavering and just want as much info as we can gather to make the choice. It is a lot of $ and a lot to think about! Thank you all again for your thoughts.
