Santa Clara U vs. ASU Barrett?

Incoming freshman 2020. Accepted to both with some merit money from SCU and 3x from Barrett. Biz/Finance major. Thoughts?

Tough call, as both are nice options. I can only say that ASU Barrett has gotten a lot of attention, as it’s been praised as the model for honors colleges. This is saying a lot, since ASU in its own right is ginormous (counting its Phoenix campus and its 30,000 online students, ASU is approaching 100K students).

Frank Bruni’s book “Where You Go is Not Who You’ll Be” devotes space to praising ASU Barrett.

Just read an excerpt from the book. Very helpful. Thank you. Curious if there are any current students/grads who can weigh in on the differing schools/environments?
