<p>How about asking what the original poster wants:</p>
<p>Big city or small?</p>
<p>Research U or LAC?</p>
<p>North or south?</p>
<p>All these schools are fine. The poster will get a good education, go to grad school if desired, and ultimately get a job from any of the three. </p>
<p>Really. Prestige? They are all fine and prestige is totally in the eye of the beholder.</p>
