In my humble opinion, it is very RARE when a school such as Villanova is worth $28,000 more per year over Penn State. They would have to make one heck of a strong case in order to convice me otherwise. Remember, that is $100,000+ over four years more! If you invest this $100,000 for 40 years till your kid is ready for retirement, it probably would be worth about $3,000,000 using todays returns.

Bottom Line: Unless Villanova has some special program that isn’t available at Penn State, take the money and run to Penn State!
