<p>Each school has an environment suitable for different people. </p>
<p>Ithaca is in a college town near Cornell. Quite far from NYC and has long, cold winters.
Stony Brook is close to NYC, and is also in a fairly small town.
Northeastern is in Boston. </p>
<p>I personally think Ithaca and Northeastern offer better education.</p>
