A&M Vs. Case Western Vs. Miami-Ohio Vs. Bentley, Please help

<p>I have been accepted by these four and have a hard time to decide. I am in Texas, A&M is very affordable. Other 3 all gave me scholarship but would still be a few K more, not really a big deal. By the way, I was accepted to business schools by all 4. </p>

<p>Any input is highly appreciated</p>

<p>Tough call. I guess it all comes down to how comfortable you feel going out of state and how much the money matters.</p>

<p>Texas A&M is a good school, but one of the most conservative ones on the planet (well, if you don't count Pensacola Community College or Liberty College or Bob Jones). Unlike the ones I just mentioned, Texas A&M has good programs, including business.</p>

<p>The other schools are your list are a bit more liberal, but not by that much. Bentley has the most high-tech school, but Case Western has the higher ranking & name recognition. I'm not aware that the business schools are much different in level and majors. </p>

<p>Case Western is just outside of downtown Cleveland, Bentley is about 15 miles west of Boston, and Miami of Ohio is in a small town (Oxford, Ohio). You already know that the Texas A&M campus is in College Station, Texas--which is kind of a mid-sized town.</p>

<p>Texas A&M will give you the rowdier, mainstream kind of college campus feel--and you might like that if you are from Texas--but then you may not get much of a feel for different people and different places that you would get by going out-of-state.</p>

<p>I suggest you talk to your parents and your brothers and sisters and friends and try to get their views. You might also consider which school has the best program in certain things. Bentley is best known for their accounting, finance, and marketing majors--I don't know about the others.</p>

<p>Lastly, you might want to consider that many people end up living close to where they go to college. So would you feel comfortable living in Ohio or Boston--or would you rather stay in Texas?</p>

<p>Best of success to you in making your choice. I hope you are happy at whichever school you choose.</p>

<p>Frankly, I ca't imagine wanted to go to Texas AM,although I am sure it is a good school.</p>

<p>If I were you, I would visit each school and meet with the dean of each school. You will get a very different feel and notice a lot of cultural differences.</p>

<p>Bentley is more akin to a combination of business school and LAC. It is a small school and a lot smaller than those that yo mentioned. Thus, you will probably get more emphasis on quality teaching and student-teacher interaction. </p>

<p>Bentely is near Boston,which, to me, is a much better place to attend school and live than where the other schools are located. However, that is just my opinion. You have to check out these places for themselves.</p>

<p>Normally, since they are all good schools, I would tell you to go to the one that is the cheapest net of scholarhships. If they are all within a couple of thousand dollars of each other in tuition, room and board, I would pick the one that seem to be the best fit for you.</p>
