Hello all,
I have committed to Stony Brook University, however, I just got off the waitlist for Northeastern. I am very stuck between the two because both are great schools and offer me a lot academically.
Stony Brook - I would be paying around 15k a year and it is closer to home as I live in New York.
Northeastern - I still did not get my financial aid package, but I got a scholarship and estimated my cost of attending which would come out to about 30-35k.
I know Northeastern is a very good school academically and prestige-wise, but would there be a difference attending Stony Brook in my medical school applications? Also, costs are important as my parents are not very wealthy, but are able to help me pay for college.
Overall, I just want to know which would be better for my future and medical school applications in an all-around approach. Thank you!
