<p>Well the final answers are here. What would you do? (Majors: Finance and Accounting)</p>
<p>Schools:</p>
<p>Accepted-
*UW-Madison(already turned down my admission so that's a no go)
*Boston University
*U of Minnesota (Carlson)
*Drake</p>
<p>Waitlisted-
*Georgetown</p>
<p>Right now I'm planning on Minnesota. I have heard that BU isn't worth the money?
Any opinions? </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>Considering your location, I’d go with Minnesota. I’ve heard GREAT things about Carlson, and you can’t beat the reciprocity.</p>
<p>minnesota out of state aint cheap either 
i can’t tell you where to go because i am not sure what your looking for in a college. academically they are about equal in ranks with BU ranking slightly better. if you’re a city type of person then BU is definitely for you! Boston is an exciting city and you will find more internship opportunities here than in Minneapolis.</p>
<p>Wisconsin residents get in-state tuition at Minnesota schools. So if he is, as his profile says, a Wisconsin resident, he’d pay about 18 grand a year including room and board @ Minnesota. Minneapolis / St. Paul are also amazing cities, it’s all just about what the OP wants. Have you visited any of your picks?</p>
<p>^wow thats something i never knew before.
with money aside, BU and UM r different type of schools. If OP is big on athletics and school spirit, he’d be better off being a golden gopher than being a terrier (other than hockey of course!). BU is also more diverse in terms of student body makeup.</p>
<p>I have visited U of M twice. I haven’t been to Boston, I was waiting until admission until thinking about visiting. </p>
<p>What I want in a college is basically the following:
*Urban
*A good amount of prestige
*School Spirit
*Plenty of oppurtunities
*Outstanding job placement</p>
<p>I am worried about BU though as I have read it’s not worth the money. Is there any truth to this? With Minnesota being equivalent to in-state it’s really hard to turn such a good school, especially Carlson.</p>
<p>UMN almost sounds perfect for you! </p>

<li>Being in the Big 10 is obviously a huge deal, and with the new stadium ready to open next year… It’s going to be crazy! According to the princeton review, I think the UMN was ranked 64 (someone correct me if I’m wrong) - and many of its individual programs are highly prestigious (ex. chem engin.). And again, being a Big 10 school means countless opportunities.</li>
