Help Me Decide! Tulane, Miami of Ohio, Dayton University?!?!?!?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Ohio State University

I am in a tough situation. I applied to all 3 and got in with different scholarships. Dividing the cost as the following
Tulane 44k
Miami of Ohio 25k
Dayton 20K (In Honors Program)

Tulane is definitely my favorite, however I don’t know if I can prove to my parents it is worth more than double a good school like Dayton.

A little bit about me, I am a very friendly outgoing guy so making friends would not be a problem. I love Tulane because I know so many people going there, the reputation, and New Orleans! I am white, Jewish, and from Illinois, Chicago Suburbs

I am debating between psychology, secondary education, and possibly marketing

*****I am hoping to get answers from people who know of the schools and can talk about the environments they offer, and the type of student that goes there, and what they think best option is financially.

I’m curious why you posted in the OSU forum? You might get more responses if you post in the Tulane, Miami and UD forums.

I don’t know much about Tulane, but might be able to answer on Miami or UD if you have a more specific question about them.

Dayton is a catholic school so being Jewish, I would find that awkward at best. Not sure how big of a deal that is for you. Miami might be a great compromise but it is very rural (although beautiful), so keep that in mind. Not sure if you have visited all 3.
