UMD vs Syracuse vs Ithaca

<p>Hello all. </p>

<p>I am choosing between these three schools and would appreciate any thoughts, opinions, experiences etc. I am accepted into Speech Pathology at all three schools. </p>

<p>UMD is in state for me and therefore least expensive. I have merit money and honors college at Ithaca. Syracuse is by far most expensive for me, but I love the atmosphere. </p>

<p>I am concerned with academic reputation, atmosphere, social life, core curriculum etc. </p>

<p>Any thoughts would be appreciated :)</p>

<p>UMD. Syracuse is not worth big extra $ over UMD, IMO. Both are big schools with good academics. Winters in Syracuse are brutal. Ithaca might be worth it if you want a smaller school and the cost is not too much more than UMD.</p>
