<p>I have been lucky enough to get into a number of really nice colleges with great aid offers.
But now i can't choose! its a real dilemma, so i want some advice and opinions on this.
I am posting colleges where i have been accepted with the amount i get in grant money. Choose the college you would go to> Cost of attendence is roughly 50000 at all these universities.</p>

<p>Carleton college - 44000
Emory university - 49000
Boston university (honors program) - 50000
Brandeis university - 44000
Northeasetern university - 23000
Case western university - 26000</p>

<p>My major is economics and i am really confused between Carleton, Emory and BU's honors program and Brandeis.</p>

<p>HELP!</p>

<p>My top 3 colleges would be Emory, Boston and Carleton based on their reputation and your grants. Good luck anyway!</p>

3

<p>I am not at all being biased here Shreya but I think Emory would be good.</p>

4

<p>As opposed to poly, I am really not biased but I would pick Emory too.</p>

<p>LOL! No, really :D</p>

<p>You can transfer to Goizueta which is very highly ranked and has great job opportunities.
Carleton - no idea.
Brandeis - more humanities-like so I don’t know if it would be good.
BU - they have great business programs but the campus (or lack of it, actually) is awful. Bang in the middle of the city and no proper campus feel, you know?</p>

6

<p>Carleton over all of them, anyday.</p>

7

<p>CArleton is what I would go with. Great place. :)</p>

8

<p>if you want to go to grad school in economics, I would say carleton.</p>

<p>Congrats shreya!!!</p>

<p>I would pick Emory or Carleton because I like a small-college environment. BC is too large, Brandeis too Jewish (no offense to the Jewish community!) and Northeastern and Case Western are too expensive given the other choices.</p>

<p>Thinking about it again I would probably pick Emory because it’s too cold in Minnesota (where Carleton is). But my choice rests purely on personal preferences - you would have a great educational experience at all of these colleges!</p>

<p>^ Don’t listen to her. She didn’t even add me on Facebook after telling me so. :mad:</p>

<p>j/k :D</p>

11

<p>carleton..
my sis apply to there too..havent heard anything</p>

12

<p>ajayc, I was under the impression that I added you. Did I not???</p>

13

<p>Would I be ranting here? :p</p>

14

<p>Thanks for the link aiayc :)</p>

<p>shreya, please let us know where you eventually decide to go.</p>

15

<p>I would choose Emory too :stuck_out_tongue:
(why did I think that Emory didn’t give fin aid to internationals; if I had known I would certainly have applied)</p>

16

<p>Without doubts, Carleton.</p>

17

<p>I think Emory considers internationals for merit scholarships but not need-based aid.</p>

18

<p>I would choose Carleton but maybe thats because I have a very negative view of the south.</p>

19

<p>Hey, I never knew Carleton would win so many votes! I was thinking of it as a some mediocre LAC! LOL</p>

<p>It looks like I do not really have accurate knowledge about the colleges in the States. </p>

<p>And good luck to the OP!</p>

<p>PS: Daniel, where are you going to go?</p>

<p>I hope you do pick Carleton!</p>
