GWU vs Smith College vs University of Texas (Austin) vs Mount Holyoke College

<p>I recently was admitted to all of these schools and am having trouble choosing. My intended major is International Relations.I was wondering about the strength of the program at each school. When it comes to my financial situation UT and Smith gave me no financial aid, MHC awarded me a 15k leadership scholarship, and I've yet to see my package from GWU. My parents are currently willing to contribute 30k to my college studies, my EFC is a little over 57k, and I do not mind taking out loans.The cold weather slightly deters me from going to an east coast school, but the small class sizes, awesome alumni network, and amazing opportunities are a plus. UT is close to home, has an amazing alumni network, a lot of school spirit, and is an awesome city, but the classes are huge. What's your take on this?Can anyone expanded on the pros and cons of each school and their program?</p>
