<p>So, I’m a junior. I’m a likely National Merit Finalist and have 34 ACT, 3.8 GPA and solidish ECs. I’m looking to double major in Bio and Econ, with the intention of going to Med School. Parents don’t want to spend much on college, so keeping costs down for my undergrad is key.</p>
<p>The schools I’m looking at are:
Alabama
Northeastern
Loyola Chicago
Pitt
Wake Forest</p>
<p>I’ve visited Alabama so far and thought it was pretty nice. I enjoyed the visit, but not sure if I liked the feel of an absolutely huuuge southern school. This summer I’m going to Boston to visit Northeastern, MIT, and Amherst (I can dream). Main reason to visit though, is Northeastern because of their National Merit scholarship.</p>
<p>So, that leaves Loyola, Pitt, and Wake. I’ve only got time during the fall to visit one of them and I was wondering where I should look. I know Pitt gives out some good tuition scholarships, but Loyola and Wake are more difficult. I don’t know whether it would be more important for me to visit one of them for the scholarship opportunities than it would be for me to check out Pitt and see how I like it.</p>
<p>So, tell me your thoughts?</p>
