Hofstra vs Baruch

Help!!! I was wondering which college would be the better decision? Ive been in self-conflict for about a month over what im going to do. Hofstra offered me a major scholarship 102,000 over 4 years so the tuition is slashed to 12,500 per semester. Baruch is significantly less; I would be commuting to Baruch because i cannot afford the insane prices of the residence hall. I understand that Baruch is a commuter school but I would spend 3 hrs+ on the train whenever I have school. Hofstra is just a 45 min car ride so I could be more involved in extracurricular activities and work more hours at my job. I would major in accounting and minor in finance. I am graduating in June, 33rd out of 487 with a 94 unweighted GPA and a 98 weighted GPA while working 15 hours a week and involved in various extracurricular activities. Which is the better decision?
