Hello, I was recently admitted to both Rutgers and BC for bio + pre-med. I know that I asked this question before, but I am having a very tough time choosing. After financial aid, BC is about $3.5k more than Rutgers. At Rutgers, I was invited to an honors program. In regards to med school placement, academics, and job opportunities, would BC give me a significant edge over Rutgers CAS? At Rutgers, I would be going with a lot of my friends and be relatively close to home, which I have to say is the most appealing aspect. Is the BC education worth the extra $15k? Was anyone ever in a similar situation such as this, meaning comparing a state flagship vs. public school? What made you choose one over the other?
Personally, I would say that it is not worth the 15k. I am in a similar situation now.
