<p>So, if you can't tell from the title...</p>
<p>I've whittled down my choices to Boston College, Syracuse and Delaware.</p>
<p>Sadly, since I haven't visited any of these schools, I have no clue which one would be the best for my 'potential' majors: Art History, Film Studies, Drama or French.</p>
<p>Syracuse gave me about 16,000 a year in merit and 17,500 in a university grant, making my whole bill there a lot less severe.</p>
<p>Delaware gave me a 12,000 merit grant, but thats about it.</p>
<p>And as for Boston College, the financial aid package is currently unknown to me.</p>
<p>So PLEASE. Any help would be good!</p>
<p>I would rank them in the order you listed them--BC, Cuse, and UDel. I think BC and Cuse are relatively close--with the Blue Hens back a significant notch but still a good school. The slight edge I'd give BC is certainly not worth the difference in money, however. As long as you can tolerate a lot of snow, Cuse sounds like the best bet to me. If you really hate winter, it is a little warmer in Newark than either Syracuse or Newton, but it sounds like you're from New York so I suspect that's not a major factor. Also, unlike the others, BC is a Catholic school so you're either going to have to like or at least tolerate that fact if you choose to go there.</p>
<p>Delaware is a SUPERB school for some majors, like BioChem and Chemical Engineering etc. Its a pretty campus and I know a graduate from there who LOVED it! And is now working on a PhD at Maryland.</p>
<p>Alll three schools have a completely different feel and "chemistry" pardon the pun. Visit all three THIS month and decide.</p>
<p>Good luck.</p>
<p>For liberal arts, BC is def the best. Cuse is a great school, but like GW and BU, it is more of a trade oriented school, meaning that it is best when grooming you for a specific career. Also, the Boston location would be a perfect place to do internships in the arts.</p>
