Hi Tara,
Thanks so much for taking the time to give me your thoughts. I should have thought to post my question earlier than I did. I had to give Cornell my answer last week. I decided on U-Mass. I had great visits at both schools and came to the conclusion that I would never with certainty know which place would be the best “fit” for me. So I let cost be the determining factor. Tough to turn down Cornell, hope I didn’t make a mistake!
Thanks again,
Sean
