Hello,

I have to choose between attending either the University of Michigan, Central Michigan University and Michigan State University. I have been accepted into all three. I would like to go into either engineering or finance or economics or possibly a double major or a major-minor in two of the subjects. I will be taking in 25 credits already, so I feel that a double major would be attainable. I would prefer to attend U of M, but funding is an issue for my family. My efc is 7720, so I am waiting to see if I receive any financial aid. I have received the Centralis Scholar award to CMU which covers 100 percent of your expenses, that is tuition, room and board and books (it’s hard to turn down!). However, I really don’t want to go to CMU as I live in Mt. Pleasant now. If anyone could help me compare these three schools and offer me some guidance as to where I should attend that would be great.

My ACT is 32, GPA 4.0 U/W, rank 1/300, good extra curriculars, white male.

Thanks in advance
