<p>Yeah so I realized I would never come to a 100% decision, so I decided to buckle down and make a choice, I chose Cornell over Georgia Tech for engineering as I was leaning towards Cornell.</p>

<p>Anyway I chose the place thats much colder, cost 60k more over 4 years, probably won't get to do a semester abroad,(at gtech you pay instate tuition while doing a semester abroad, so for an out of state student its even cheaper than a normal semester), and knew less people(met more peeps both prospective and current students during my overnight at tech than at Cornell).</p>

<p>I'm very happy with my decision though, as there are so many positives. Much better in all non engineering fields, more diverse as it isn't a mainly engineering school, even male to female ratio, 1 day drive versus 3 day drive or several hour flight, ivy league prestige, wanted to go their since I was little, more similar to my current northeast location(was a bit worried about adjusting to southern culture if I picked tech), will graduate in 4 years instead of 5 while still getting co-op experience(albeit not as much), probably has more connections up north where I probably want to end up, etc.</p>

<p>Can't wait to see you all next fall.</p>
