<p>Hello,</p>

<p>My parents are making me decide between Penn State and University of Michigan because they want me to go to Michigan as my family is moving from New Jersey to Michigan. Which college do you think is better and why? </p>

<p>I have been accepted into Rutgers University, Boston University, University of Maryland, Drexel University, University of Connecticut and my top pick is Penn State.</p>

<p>I am planning to study Biomedical Engineering, which is the same thing as Bioengineering. </p>

<p>Take the cheaper of the two...that's what Id say. Also be aware that here at PSU you have to have i Believe a cumul. of 3.3 to be guarunteed acceptance into the biomed major your sophmore year.</p>

<p>I know that you need a 3.3 GPA to be guaranteed a spot in biomedical engineering, but i can maintain that. Money is not an issue, my father believes in education, so which ever one is better for education and the one that I think is better socially and i will feel comfortable in.</p>
