Hi Everyone!

I got into both Vanderbilt University (College of Arts and Science) and University of Michigan (College of Literature, Science and the Arts).But I dont know which one I should choose.

My Criteria:
1.Reputation (I’m an international, so I dont know which is more reputable in the US)
2.Location ( which city is better in terms of social life, safety, accessibility to other large cities?)
3. Ease of transfer to an Ivy ( I’m gona give it a shot for transfer)
4. Academics (Im planning to study political sc/sociology,which schl is better at this major? )
5. fitting-in ( Since Im international, and I heard that Vandy has a lot of frats, and are mainly white, would it be difficult for me to fit in?)

THANK YOU for replying THANKS for helping me :D
