Can anyone give some suggestions on choosing the offer?
Brown gives 1/4 tuition deduction, it is more prestigious and I like the location. The program is thesis based and not terminal.
Pittsburgh has full financial aid and 2000 every month for student researcher working. The location is more Midwest.
I am just wondering is it worthy to pay for the tuition of Brown? Or I should just save money and go for the PhD?
