Title says it all daughter has choice of Northeastern or UCSD both very good schools which one is better for marine science and Environmental science. Also, UCSD is in state so relatively affordable and we got aid for two years in Northwestern, so this would be much more expensive.
Stick with the in-state option for undergrad. She can go out-of-state later.
Marine science on the pacific or a Great Lake. Tough choice with NU being such a great school. Cost. Location. Major of choice. UCSD for me. Imho.
