I'm from VA.. UB and VCU are the two schools I got accepted to.

Any advise in where I should go based on the school's program?

I'd appreciate any advise. I know it's something I should decide but I want to hear some pro's and con's about the two school.

Thanks!

The two schools seem pretty similar to me. Rankings are similar, same kind of history.
I guess the biggest things you have to consider are:
1. Location
2. Cost
3. Which you liked better during interview

Buffalo weather is going to be pretty different from Virginia weather -- colder and more snow. I'm not sure how you feel about that?
Virginia is your state school, so you will get in-state tuition there with no hassle.
Where do you plan to live upon graduation? If you plan to stay further South, I would recommend Virginia.
And most importantly, where did you feel better when you interviewed?

I think answering those questions will help you decide 🙂 Good luck!
