@BelknapPoint My mistake, I meant merit, not financial aid.
@Wien2NC Thank you so much for the information, it really does seem like the programs are unique and could benefit me immensely- you’ve given me a lot to think about!
@mamag2855 I have toured U of R once so far, and I fell in love with the campus. Like you said, the opportunities available there seem top notch, and if I do receive a scholarship there, more than likely that’s where I will attend.
@mommdc Thank you for the suggestions!
