Rice or Case Western (30k per year)

<p>I am interested in comp sci, and possibly pre-med. They both have fantastic hospitals nearby for premed, how does comp sci compare at rice / case ?
I would love to attend rice, especially the weather and the environment (Cleveland is kind of ghetto....). However, 30k is an enormous amount, is going to rice and paying around another 120k total worth it? Also, is contacting finaid officers @ rice worth it to see if they can help me out financially to attend rice?</p>

<p>I’ve visited both, and I would recommend that if you can find any way to attend Rice within your means, it is definitely worth it. They’re both fantastic schools with great engineering programs, but I liked the geeky culture more at Rice than I did at Case–but that’s just me.</p>

<p>^ for my S, this is a no-brainer and will definitely choose Rice over Case (even with the 30k scholarship he received), for bio-eng.</p>
