<p>I'm a high school senior, and I'm in the process of deciding which school to attend next year. I have 5 choices,
1.U Michigan (honors program)
2. UVA
3. Tufts
4 BC (Honors program)
5. Amherst College</p>
<p>I'm having a very difficult time figuring out which one to choose. I have only visited UM and UVA and already I cannot choose between those two. Any help or advice on this problem would be much appreciated.</p>
<p>How much per year will each cost? I agree with Waverly below - all things being equal </p>
<p>1) Amherst
2) Michigan/UVA
3) BC/Tufts</p>
<p>Amherst would be my personal choice for the amazing classes and tight knit community.</p>
<p>If you are comfortable being on your own in a big college environment then UMich is a great option. The fact that you made the Honors program (honors housing anyone?) is also a huge plus.</p>
<p>BC or Amherst!!(: Sounds better than the rest.</p>
<p>My concern with Amherst is that since it is such a small school, the opportunities are going to be much less than that of say a school of Michigan’s size. Also I get the sense it is somewhat isolated in terms of location.</p>
