<p>I love Vassar and Dartmouth so I applied to both, hoping to get into at least one. In a surprising turn of fate, I got into both and am now forced to choose. I know I am very lucky, I am just terrible at making decisions, and I cannot decide.. I am a student who is very interested in math and studio arts, and I'm hoping to go to graduate school for math. Ultimately I really hope to become a professor or mathematician. I live in New Hampshire, so I would be very close to Dartmouth (which I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing). Also Dartmouth is giving me a scholarship for free tuition, so I could graduate with no loans/debts. Vassar is only a few thousand dollars more a year for me, so I could still attend if I wanted to. So basically my question is, which school is better for me getting into grad school, and any other opinions/statistics/etc to possibly help me in the decision? Again I absolutely love both, so I know I would be happy at both.</p>
<p>Dartmouth is a MUCH better school. </p>
<p>Based on what you’ve written, that’s what I would recommend, strongly.</p>
<p>Full ride to Dartmouth? I think the choice is obvious. Vassar is a great school too, but Dartmouth just seems like a better choice.</p>
