Schools: Fordham Gabelli vs NEU D'amore Mckim
Intended major: Finance for both
Similarities: Big cities NYC v BOSTON, opportunities (nyc finance vs co-op)
Costs: Around 50-55k for Fordham (hopefully can appeal for more aid) vs 70k for NEU (also appealing for aid); this includes housing but no outside scholarships just het

Fordham Pros:

  • Business school actually pretty well regarded
  • Helpful Alumni
  • Lib arts core which I love
  • NYC opportunities
    Fordham Cons:
  • Lived in NY all my life so I would wanna get out
  • Less name recognition
  • Have to try a bit harder to compete w NYU and Columbia kids for opps

NEU Pros:

  • Co-Op
  • Boston opportunities, also college town
  • More name recognition
  • Idk someone help me out
    NEU Cons:
  • Overcrowded
  • Grossly overpriced
  • Cold
  • Gimmicky? Heard the teachers aren't that good

Tiebreaking considerations:
I hope I get off my WLs, I also have SUNY Geneseo as an option but I would do PPL there and go pre-law. That ones like 4k a year.

#

I'm still appealing for both and I think I'll have more luck w Fordham but it looks like NEU will stay 10-25k more than Fordham. So idk if thats worth

For finance, I think it's hard to beat Fordham if they cost less. Placement is great in NYC and the alumni network is solid and helpful.
