I'm a high school senior and going to university. My choices:
Columbia [College]
Pros: Excellent academics, New York City, family and friends nearby in NJ, can easily see games at MSG, Nassau, and Prudential Center, and my dad's friends still teaching there.
Cons: Price, New York City
McGill University
Pros: Montreal (hockey + practice French), cold and fresh air, city, solid academics
Cons: Price, away from anyone I know
University of Virginia
Pros: Lots of people I know (TJ sends ~70 seniors a year there), very cheap, solid academics, Echols scholar program, nice campus
Cons: A bit out of the way
University College London (Math with Economics program)
Pros: Graduate in 3 years, will be there during Olympics, solid academics
Cons: Away from all family and friends, will be there during Olympics, expensive living costs, different from what I'm used to, still away from ice hockey
Costs aside from UVa I expect to be pretty similar. Which would you pick? I'm pretty sold on Columbia, though others have told me they'd pick McGill or UCL.
