Obviously social life is better at uw Madison, does not exist at reed because reed is just study study study, bard doesn’t have a huge scene. Also i might have heard that the mental health issues are more persistent as harder schools like reed, not a big thing but like it’s something to think about

#

Any brutal opinions would be great. Committing in like 2 days so I need some help in deciding, dad wants me to go to reed or bard because it’s practically free compared to wisconsins cost, and my mom doesn’t know

How much of a financial burden is it if you go to uw Madison

#

Like is it something that your parents would have serious opposition to (changes in lifestyle, financing,etc)

#

Did you also voice the pros of uw Madison to your dad and what’s his reception to it

# runic mica Nah he just said like go to bard or reed is cheaper

He sounds completely shut off on the idea of going to uw, correct? If so unfortunately your parents are gonna have the final word on where you go unless you have the scholarships and/or complete ability to pay it yourself.

The only thing I can think of is to call the financial aid office and ask if you can get more for your financial aid package
