UMass vs BU vs Villanova Business-UG

<p>UMass Amherst - Isenberg Honors with Deans + Adams Scholarship (Rem tuition $9000)
BU - Management Honors, No scholarship, No aid
Villanova - No honors, scholarship or aid!</p>

<p>Able to pay but only if there is value. Otherwise would prefer to keep money set aside for grad school. </p>

<p>Seems like an obvious choice but would like to check with people in the know.</p>

<p>I would go to Villanova. The Main Line is an awesome area and all the kids at 'Nova seem very happy. UG biz is so great there, only reason I didn’t apply is because it is so close to my house. 'Nova is the 2nd most respected Philly area U behind only Penn.</p>

<p>Thanks dantheman. What did you pick, if I may ask? </p>

<p>Addl Info -
Family lives near Boston
BC - waitlisted, some chance of getting in.</p>

<p>I will be going to Miami. Picked it over Wisco, UCLA, and Penn State. Didn’t apply to 'Nova, but the only reasons I didn’t were the extreme proximity and my being Jewish, which kinda led me to preferring to avoid a Catholic school. I will say that I didn’t feel that Nova was overly catholic, but I just didn’t want a religious school. Do you want to remain close to your family or get away?</p>

<p>Isenberg is very well regarded and is one of the toughest, most competitive admits at UMass.</p>

<p>I don’t think either BU or Villanova is worth a $30,000+ premium over UMass. Save your money for grad school.</p>

<p>I agree with notrichenough. And I say that as a BU (Law) grad.</p>
