<p>I was accepted into 4 schools and have it narrowed down to 2. Endicott College and Siena College.</p>

<p>Endicott College is in Beverly Massachusetts a beautiful town right on cape Ann. It is approximately 20 minutes from Boston, a place where I have envisioned myself always going to school. It has a decent business school but is not renowned for it. Average GPA of a 3.1/3.2 Sats around 1100. Acceptance Rate 40%. At Endicott I would also be on the soccer team something I have been doing since I was 2 years old and would also have the opportunity to play with kids I have been playing with since I was 14. I went for an overnight and loved the school and seemed to fit in well.</p>

<p>Siena College is in Loudonville, NY about 5 minutes outside of Albany. It was my reach school and I was accepted. It is a good business school with a great finance department much better than Endicott's and on the average is much more well known. Average GPA is a 3.5 with SAT's of 1150. The students there predominately are from instate (83%). I am from CT. Also It is a Jesuit Catholic school so I am not sure if there is really a big social scene. I would not have the opportunity to play soccer there, but it is a Diviois 1 school with a great basketball program and I have always dreamed of going to a school where I could watch D1 Basketball.</p>

<p>So my question to you is what do i do? Choose the Better Education in Siena or the School I like a little bit better in Endicott?</p>

<p>Siena is a great school!</p>

<p>I would say Endicott.</p>

<p>Just FYI - Siena is Franciscan, not Jesuit. My S also liked the idea of being part of D1 bball as he played since he was 3 all the way thru HS. But Siena didn’t have the major he ultimately wanted, so he went elsewhere.</p>
