UMD vs UAlabama vs URichmond vs UofSC vs UArizona vs FSU for Finance

Continuing to read all your tips and suggestions with much appreciation.

Bocconi - S24 was accepted into the BIEF (Bachelor’s in International Economics and Finance) program. Attended a virtual admitted students Zoom session the other day. Seems to be academically strong and highly ranked. However, I’m not sure if the exam-heavy (2 exams make up ~90% of course grade) style is the right fit for S24.

Any tips for negotiating cost?
