If the difference is $25k per year, for 4 years, and assuming that is real money to your family (there are some families for whom it is not), then MN is a wonderful place to do what you want to do. Much as we love UW, I wouldn’t spend $25k more per year for UW over MN.
Imagine what that money can go to instead – allow you to take unpaid internships to advance your career goals, study abroad without worrying about cost, take classes during the summer etc.
MN is a great school, with great opportunities in your area of interest. Look ahead, to a wonderful experience!
