Rice vs Lafayette Help Plz!!!

<p>Hi, I am an international student and basically I have a choice between these two. </p>

<p>Lafayette College offers me financial aid which covers half the tuition yet Rice has no financial assistance for me.
(My Family Contribution: Rice 55k/yr>Lafayette College 25k/yr)</p>

<p>Money is an important factor. Rice definitely has better reputation and I am wondering whether it is worth to pay for the extra money to attend Rice or not. Should I go with money or should I go with the reputation?</p>

<p>Intended Major: kind of undecided but probably related to Engineering or Math. </p>

<p>Any suggestion is appreciated! Thank you very much!!!</p>

<p>There was a reason you applied to Lafayette… so consider those. Especially if you really don’t know what you want educationally, go where you can afford to go.</p>
