<p>Hi all,
I am back again. I just re-read all your comments about Barrett vs. Rochester. You guys are very helpful. She is going to re-visit Rochester& look at Tulane. So far, she is leaning towards Barrett, for obvious reasons: she loved it there, they have a good program, it is very affordable, she would get more attention & opportunities. If she decides to switch to music, there would be enough money for a 5th year, if need be. The only thing my husband & I worry about is the reputation of ASU. The perennial question: how important is a name school? I doubt Barrett is very well known on the east coast.
She also just got accepted at Case Western Reserve, with merit money ($24K). Anyone know how good CWR is in physics? I know they are good in computer science, nursing, music, engineering. </p>
