I have some friends there already and am very excited. I love the school so much and got directly into my major (Computer Engineering). However, I recently got into Clemson (unexpectedly) 2 days ago for engineering. Clemson is slightly cheaper than Alabama but not by much sadly. Clemson is ranked higher than Bama in Engineering and I wonder if it could help me with grad school applications. However, Clemson doesn't offer transfer scholarships and I would also have to pay out of pocket. U Ark gave me a scholarship that pays a lot of the difference between the in and out of state tuition. I'm not as crazy about U Ark as Clemson or Bama but it is the cheapest as of now.
What would y'all do? Any kinds of resources (especially on scholarships)? Should I say goodbye to my dream school and new friends? Which will help with my job opportunities and grad school applications? What do I do about the cost? Is the price tag worth it? What about the ROI? Please let me know what y'all think. Thank you!
