IU Hutton Honors versus Miami's Academic Scholars Program?

<p>OK, it's decision time. Our D is ready to make a decision and is in the process of conducting more thorough campus visits. There three choices are (poli sci and english dual major):</p>

<p>Miami University - Oxford: accepted into Academic Scholars Program with $22K p/yr scholarship (at least)
Indiana U: accepted into Hutton Honor College with at least $11K p/yr scholarship
UW - Madison: still waiting to hear on any scholarships and honor designation</p>

<p>So, can anyone with experience in these schools help weigh our choices? We are interested in hearing about program strength and experience of academic honors programs, but we are also very interested in hearing about school culture and internship experiences. Any feedback would be helpful! </p>

<p>IU and Miami are VERY different culture-wise. I was admitted to both, but hated Miami’s culture. If your D likes a smaller environment, she may like Miami. But it does live up to its ‘JCrew U’ nickname, at least in my experience</p>
