Northwestern or Rutgers New Brunswick for Comp Lit?

[foreigncorrespondent]

How significant is the ranking difference between Rutgers and Northwestern for Comp Lit? Should I factor that in at all, or go with the better-suited POI/better-funded program?

i would say Rutgers is better. They have some excellent faculty and funding too. Dont know much about NW though. Congrats on the acceptances!
