<p>I really like American University and would love to go the school. It fits my major perfectly, and my chances of getting a job are much much higher than they would be if I went to an instate college, like FSU.
My parents are well off and have saved up nearly $250,000 for me for college, which I am both gracious for and baffled by. So I can pay for AU but I just can't bring myself to pay $60,000 a year for college for 6 years (I plan to get a masters).
I may go to FSU and then American for a masters, but I feel like going to American for undergrad would really increase my chances of maybe going to a better grad school than American. I don't really know what to do</p>
<p>My opinion: American is not such in incredible brand name (like Georgetown) that it is worth paying for 4 years at AU vs. FSU. I would do 4years at FSU and then jump on to AU for a masters… </p>
