Where the rubber meets the road...

<p>@abs - D is interested in Business, I sharpened it a “degree” by throwing out some narrower specializations, and that was one she latched onto.</p>

<p>To your point - the experiences at each of the schools are quite a contrast. I think UMich or NU is more about “the dream” of what a college experience should be like, vs. the more intimate options being the counter and pragmatic alternative to that.</p>

<p>Going to UMich and not getting into Ross? would be a bust. Getting into NU with ANY merit or need aid? would be very hard to turn down. And the safties? I guess that’s why they call them “safties”… I think she will be happy anywhere. She is very easy going and will make the most of wherever she lands.</p>
