Update: Rochester FA ended up being very flexible. They increased my merit & need aid so that it’s now about $5k cheaper than BC. Parents are pushing me toward BC though because it’s more prestigious and has better job placement.

I definitely like Rochester’s open curriculum and academic/research focus more, but I feel like I should be prioritizing overall school strength over something that may never affect me if I decide not to apply to grad schools four years later. In conclusion, I’m no closer to figuring out where I want to go than I was 2 weeks ago…
