<p>Ok so I've got a full scholarship for all four years at NJIT and with financial aid will actually be being paid to go there. However, I really like NYU-Poly, but it will cost about $17000/year to go there. However, it has better name recognition and numerous cutting edge research opportunities. I plan on doing the 5 year masters program at whichever one i go to, so doing bachelors at one place then masters is not what im looking for. I plan to major in Electrical Engineering or maybe Computer Science. Which school should I attend?</p>
<p>17k a year is quite expensive. Have you negotiated with their financial aid office? I believe NJIT would be the better choice…heck the money you save within the four years can automatically transmit to graduate school at your choice of school</p>
<p>I will be paying a little less than I would have had to for Poly.</p>
<p>Congrats! You compromised between your two choices with a third excellent choice.</p>
