Does cost or experience matter more when choosing a college?

Right now I have hard choice between two colleges. One college is more prestigious in the area I am studying in, and I've been accepted into multiple honors programs, but it's not offering me any scholarships. The second college gave me a large scholarship, it's a private university. Overall, attending the first college would be almost 2x more expensive, but I also like the feel of the campus a lot more and it's more accredited in my area of study. I'm not sure what or how to decide.

As a music major, where should I go to college?

I plan to major in music. For my bachelor's degree, is it smarter to go to an in-state school to try to save some money, or is it worth it to try to get into the best conservatory I can? For context, if I go to an in-state school I would be considering the University of Kansas, Kansas State University, and Wichita State University.

Hi I am a sophmore in highschool, highly considering a career in medical technology. Specifically an x-ray tech major. I was wondering what colleges around the Northwest Ohio/Fort Wayne area would be good options? And what CCP classes would you recommend I take?

On the different colleges, I am open to ones that are further away, like Columbus for example.

How important is it to choose a college based on financial circumstances?

I am trying to decide where to go to college. If I go where I want I'm going to be in debt, but if I go where I don't want to go I'll have barley any. Is it worth not being happy if I'm not going to be in debt, or be in debt and get a better education and have a better experience.

Is it worth going to my dream school if it costs significantly more than an acedemically comparable school?

I am a high school junior, and I am unsure of if I should choose my dream school (Notre Dame) over a school that is about as good but less expensive. I obviously have not applied to any schools yet, but I am trying to prepare for when I do. #college #financial-aid #choosing-a-college #colleges #finance

What is the best route for me to take to achieve my goals and reach my full potential?

I really want to go into medicine but worry about the cost of school and I do NOT want to graduate with hundreds of thousands of dollars in student loans. I also don't know how to choose my under grad school and worry that if I don't pick the right school it will be harder to get into med or vet school. Is there a way to look online at what classes/schools are recognized by medical schools? #choosing-a-college #medschool #vetschool ##howtodecide #veterinary #medicine #healthcare #doctor #vet #college #debt #loans #financial-aid
