<p>To me it’s a no-brainer in favor of Vanderbilt! My God, get away from home and experience life in one of the most fun cities on a gorgeous campus with students from all over the place. Barron’s head is far up somewhere dark- so don’t put any stock in his post.<br>
Broaden your horizons, unless none of the credits will transfer. The students at Vanderbilt (many of whom have lots of financial aid) are, for the most part, polite and nice. And they aren’t buried in snow 6 months a year.</p>
