Not sure what to do...

<p>I have narrowed my college choices to two schools. They couldn't be any different, however. One of my choices is to attend a small school and most likely live at home first year, save some money, and hopefully transfer to a bigger school. The other option is to attend a large university about an hour away, which has more opportunities and is a little cheaper. I am not 100% sold on this large school though. I am not sure whether to live at home freshman and sacrifice the "college experience" in order to attend my dream school, or whether to bite the bullet and take a chance.
Any help/insight would be great. Thanks!</p>
