<p>Hi! :) I am trying to decide where I'd like to go to college. I have visited all three of these schools; campus wise, I really love University of Notre Dame and University of Rochester. Case happens to be cheaper, as I got a bigger scholarship there.
I love ND and Rochester, but am worried about being in debt and such. Is it worth it? For both, I got about $20k in financial aid, including some loans.
Also, I am interested in the sciences (possibly Pre Med).</p>
<p>I don't know if anyone can help, but thanks for any advice. I'm just so indecisive!</p>
<p>Rochester is great for Pre-Med/sciences. But it seems like it would put you unable to pay for medical school if you went there so I’d go to Case.</p>
<p>I would go to Case its a GREAT school and much less costly.</p>
<p>Well, we need to know what we are talking about. </p>
<p>O.P. … what will be your out-of-pocket cost (including loans) at each school?</p>
<p>Thanks for the responses. :)</p>
<p>Here’s what the $ comes to…
Case: $14,808 a year with loans [they are missing an important piece of fin. aid information that I believe will change my aid to be lower. however, I did get a $27,000 scholarship]</p>
<p>Rochester: $37,000 a year with loans [however, my fin. aid is being re-evaluated]</p>
<p>ND: $34,000 a year with loans </p>
<p>The one thing I dislike about Case is the very city oriented campus. :(</p>
<p>Yeah I hear you but neither ND nor Rochester is worth 80K extra per year. </p>
<p>2nd choice would be ND unless Rochester comes through.</p>
<p>Yeah. I do not know what I will do if Case lowers its financial aid significantly. I have one last choice - OSU. Which is about the same as Case, unless Case lowers its aid.
I really do like ND or Rochester the best though. :/</p>
<p>Ohio State? What does the money look like there? OSU is a GREAT option.</p>
<p>It’s pretty good. It’s cheaper to begin with, too. I got something like a $2500 scholarship.</p>
