Rice vs Wash U

<p>hey, i was wondering what you guys think of Rice vs. Wash U for architecture.
Rice is ranked no3, and has been about there for a long time, while Wash U isnt ranked. I got a partial scholarship at Wash U, so it costs about 2k less than Rice.(about the same basically)
Waht about the rest of the University? Im leaning heavily towards Rice, but wanted to know what everyone here thinks.</p>

<p>2k/year is not that much....you will like Rice location, students, campus more than WASH U.</p>

<p>i know that i will, but its just that Wash U has already given me a scholarship, so there is a chance of getting it increased for my sophomore year if i attend. Rice hasnt given me any money (im an intel, so i dont qualify for need based aid).. So the chances of getting some scholarship or aid at rice is less. 1 USD=44 Indian Rupees, so my parents are getting killed here.
And i made a mistake, its about 4k not 2k, but still not enough to warrant a huge change in my mind.</p>

<p>only you and your parents can decide about 10% cost differential....both are good schools.</p>
