Where should I go?

I have aspirations to go to med school eventually. I want to do some combination of pre-med courses and IR. Georgetown has a great program for me called “international health”. I applied into it and got waitlisted. I will be trying my hardest to get off the waitlist, but in the meantime my best options are:

USC
Boston College Honors Program
UMich (put in my essay to the LSA honors program)

What I am looking for:

Stimulating academic environment, and considerable prestige nationally.

Access to the big city

Safe environment

Nice Dorms and good food

Socially, I take my time to meet friends. I prefer a peaceful 1 on 1 dinner or small gathering to a big party. I am not huge on drinking, but I am open to change. A college with a more relaxed rather than heavy partying social scene is better for me.

I live in Michigan and I would love to get away, but I want to see if someone can persuade me otherwise.
