[University of Florida Vs. Texas A&M]

Hi All

I have a condition here and I am quite stuck

So any ( i really mean it) comment is totally appreciated.

I am currently faced to two offers:

1- Texas a&m

Pros:

Funding is quite high (2650 per month)

Cheap City

Higher in the Ranking

Cons:

Hot! City

I am admitted as a TA and I have to find a RA position within one year (Should I really consider it as a Con? I mean people around me are telling me that it is Pro but i dont believe them!)

2- University of Florida

Pros:

Good Porf. + Good Research Topic

I might be accompanied by one of my friends

Cons:

I still did not receive official admittance letter

Money should not be as much as Texas

and I have to answer Texas a&m before April 15th!

So guys, please help me choose a wise decision

I will really appreciate it
