Virginia Tech or George Mason University?

<p>So I've been rejected from my top school and have to decide between VT or GMU. I went to Virginia Tech over the weekend and fell completely in love with it; the campus, the people, EVERYTHING. The only problem is that it really isn't known for my major, which is Political Science.
I heard that GMU is good for Poli Sci and that it's an up and rising school, but it's wayyyy to close to home (20 minute drive), and I don't really love it..
I'm most likely paying full tuition for both because of my family's income so I really don't know what to do.
HELP?</p>
