Hi guys! I’m admitted to both Cal (chem major) and Hopkins (bio major), and I’m having a real hard time deciding where to go. Would you guys give me some suggestions on this? Thanks a lot!
Scholarships? What’s the price difference here? These are both awesome schools, so money should be the primary factor unless it truly is of limited or no concern. If that’s the case, then we can start talking merits and drawbacks of large state schools vs. smaller private schools.
It all should boil down to which one will cost you less net net.
that’s the one you should go to.
What’s your parents ’ budget ? Net price at each (add direct costs and subtract scholarships or grants only, not loans. ) what are your goals ? ( if med school, do you have any other choice ?)
Max distance from home? Price range? Extracurricular activities/sports? Public or private?
I don’t really have any concerns over the price issue. And I generally prefer California than Baltimore. But other than that, I truly don’t know how to choose between these two.
