UMich LSA vs. Fordham vs. UMass (Econ)

I know these posts probably aren’t preferred but I would appreciate advise regarding which college I should commit to. My options are UMich (58k), Fordham (32k), and UMass Amherst (40k) for economics (prices are annual). Obviously Michigan is the stronger choice here but considering that I’ll likely receive about 80k in assistance from my parents over the 4 years, is Michigan worth the debt over my other options?

 

UMass Amherst is an option for you if you’re dedicated to getting involved in one of the application based clubs in Isenberg. That being said, recruitment from UMass is much harder than it would be from UMich (Umass is non target, where as somewhere like UMich will immediately have a better reputation). That being said, anything is possible as I and a few other people from this graduating class at UMass are going into IB, as well as ER/S&T.
