<p>So, I currently go to UT Arlington and applied for UT Austin. I got in, my boyfriend did not, and my parents want me to stay where I am. I honestly cannot decide where to go and I have to put the deposit down on Austin soon if I want to go there.</p>
<p>Arlington --
Gave me $8,000 a semester in scholarships
I will be done at least a semester early
It's fairly easy for me to maintain a high 3.0-4.0 GPA
My boyfriend can return here
My parents want me to stay here
It's only an hour from home</p>
<p>however,
I don't like the students
I haven't found any friends
I have to take Spanish (ew)
The campus is completely boring</p>
<p>Austin --
Is very selective, and I got in
Is surrounded by a great town
Is nationally ranked
Has an active student body
I would get to take American sign language</p>
<p>However,
It's not guaranteed I will like it
They offered me only loans
It will be more competitive and harder work
It will be 5 hours away from home
It's possible I will be back to "on-time" and I really want to graduate early</p>
<p>What is good at one school is bad at another. I'm beyond confused and whatever school I choose I will have to be at for the next 2 1/2 years so this is a big decision!</p>
