I’m trying to decide where I’m going to attend college next year. I plan to major in geology and I’ve narrowed it down to UT Austin and CU Boulder. From what I can tell, Boulder is going to cost about 30k less. I’ve read about how UT has a very small geology program with a large budget that I’ll get a very good education from. What I’m wondering is how does CU Boulder compare? I think I would enjoy living in Boulder a little more with all of the outdoor activities, but I would enjoy Austin as well, so I am really torn between the two.
