I chose UVA over...

<p>For me it came down between UVA and UMich</p>

<p>Umich was eventually flat ruled out because we could not afford it, especially without the guaruntee of 100% met fin aid (around 90% avg for students but that was too little haha). </p>

<p>I plan on majoring in biomedical engineering
Both schools have top programs and Mich’s engi school is much better in general; however, the structure of UVA’s BME program is exactly what I am looking for as it is directly tied to the school of medicine and the BME dept is located IN the UVA on campus hospital. That was the main factor for me!</p>
