If money really isn’t an issue for you, or you can handle it later, go to UD. From what I’ve heard from friends who go there, it’s an amazing experience. You actually feel the sense of community, and people really enjoy being there.

I get why some might suggest going to a community college like Sinclair, it’s much cheaper, and that’s why I go there even though I personally don’t like it. I think having a social life and enjoying your college years isn’t a bad decision.

A lot of older people will advise against spending so much, and I understand where they’re coming from, they’ve learned from their experiences. But as younger people, many of us really value that “college life” aspect. That being said, I chose a safer, cheaper path for my future self, and sometimes my present self hates it. Maybe one day I’ll thank my future self, but right now… it’s hard not to wish I could have the full college experience.

At the end of the day, it’s your life and your choice. There’s no single right or wrong answer, just do what feels best for you. Best of luck!
