<p>I applied to Emory and UCF and got accepted to both. Obviously, Emory is the better school and they have the major I'd like to pursue (Human Biology) and I really love the school. But the finances may be tricky - close to 90% of my CoA is covered by Fin Aid and Scholarships but that extra 10% per year out of our pocket would definitely be felt (though my family assures me it'll get paid, and they don't tend to sugar coat). UCF on the other hand is a school I don't care for and doesn't have the major I want and is "inferior" to Emory (the student to teacher ratio terrifies me) but not only would my entire education be paid for, I'd be living at home since it's right around the corner and would be able to keep a significant amount of the money that could go towards medical school or live off of instead of getting a job which would let me focus on my studies more (in comparison to Emory where I'd definitely have to work quite a few hours). </p>
<p>I'm not looking for anyone to make this decision for me, it's just that no one in my family and none of my friends have been/are in a similar situation so I could really use some input.</p>
