<p>Remember that you have the option of taking classes at Bryn Mawr, Swat, and Penn.</p>
<p>Personally I think Haverford is the obvious choice if the money was comparable. Obviously if you really want to watch big time sports, then the decision is different, but otherwise I'd vote Haverford. That's just me though.</p>
<p>Why Haverford? Just because of academic strength?</p>
<p>Price being equal, USC over Miami if you want a larger school, Haverford if you want a more intimate experience.</p>
<p>Goofball - Academic strength, the combination of a large course selection with the consortium and intimate classes with an 1,100 student school, the Honor Code, and the values associated with the school.</p>
<p>DSC: Haverfords major offerings are quite limited....unless I guess you find the classes through the consortium...good point</p>
<p>anyone else?</p>
<p>I say go for USC, ranked higher than UM, both have great social lives (a big reason I'm not going to UM though is because more of its social life is focused on sobe/coco grove and I'm not sure I wanna spend $100 a weekend to go clubbing), better sports team, better alum network, more donations (They just received like three more for a total of near $60 million the other day), and they have been on the rise, though U Miami has too.</p>
<p>Do you wanna work on West Coast or East Coast when you get older?</p>
