Tufts vs Brandeis vs Northeastern

I have narrowed down my college selection to these 3 schools, and would be okay attending any.

Tufts gave the least amount of money while Brandeis gave the most, including a 15k merit scholarship - the difference is about 18k/yr. Money IS a factor, however, my family is lucky enough to be able to afford to send me to any of the 3.

  1. Tufts - Engineering/Econ
  2. Brandeis - international Econ/finance for a BA/MA (5 Year Program)
  3. Northeastern - Engineering

Engineering and Business/Econ are my 2 top majors.

My question is, is it worth it to spend that much more money to go a more “prestigious” school like Tufts? I would swim for both Tufts and Brandeis, but I definitely like the vibe of the campus/team a little more at Tufts.

Thoughts?
