Bucknell, Miami, Richmond, or Tulane??

<p>I am deciding between these 4 schools for next year... All have pros and cons so I am just looking for some opinions on these schools. I am going to major in some area of business. School spirit, academic reputation, and things to do on or off campus are all important to me.</p>

<p>Change your location; way too easy to identify you…</p>

<p>You have some nice choices. As far as location you simply can not beat Tulane. New Orleans is an awesome place to spend four years. In my opinion it is the ultimate college town.The food, the music, the architecture, the history, the people all contribute to making New Orleans an exciting and interesting place. Tulane offers a well rounded experience - great academics in an amazing city. I am a Tulane grad -it has been a few years but I loved my years at Tulane and I love New Orleans! </p>

<p>Miami - sure South Beach being a stones throw away seems exciting. The beaches are close by and beautiful. I have never been impressed with the Miami campus. </p>

<p>Do not know much about Bucknell or Richmond other than they are very good schools.</p>

<p>Based on your priorities as listed in your post, I’d pick Tulane.</p>

<p>Those are the four schools i am choosing between. I have knocked out Trinity because Hartford is a slum. Bucknell is just too rural for me. So i am really down to Richmond or Holy Cross and it is a tough decision. Holy Cross seems to have more school spirit and better alumni network but i think that is because Richmond has risen up the ranks pretty quickly after they got the big $$$ infusion some years back. Holy Cross versus Richmond is a pretty tough choice.</p>
