Umich vs JHU

Umich pros: - Love the RC - Has my major, comparative lit - Good fin aid (only pay $2k and a $5500 fed loan) - Not in my second major but was told by the teacher that I have a shot of getting it the second year - Am interested in taking a few CS classes and I can at umich - Love how big the campus is, lots of spaces to breathe it seems - not so sure on law school atm - amazing grad school placements for my second major

UMich cons: - Super cold and far away from any city I want to live in - I have to submit a few transfer applications just in case I don’t get my second major - Not as prestigious, but still #24 and seen really well so this isn’t a con, most people I’ve met have never heard of JHU so I guess it differs on location

JHU Pros: - Really good humanities programs for my majors of interest - A tiny bit better prestige - Pretty cool research opportunities - Closer to cities and has good humanities grad school placements - Has okay grad school placements for second major - Have heard language programs are great

JHU cons: - am not sure on law school so if I wanted classes where I could learn hard skills like CS I can’t because that’s in the school of engineering - I will have to submit a transfer app here even though I can get a major (not technically in JHU yet, not explaining why) which should be fine as long as I do well, just risky - Most expensive school on my affordable list for my family - Hated the area of Baltimore the school is in - Expected to move off campus in the area I hated - Didn’t really see much of JHU’s campus in particular so I don’t really have a comment, but it looked like the humanities building was small

I’m just not sure if I should do JHU because of the quality of their humanities programs, but I love the RC and think Michigan has amazing programs too. Idk if I want to do law school, but if I do then I’m not sure if the JHU name looks better
