Re: Which of the unis would provide the best location?
I'm at Illinois right now, and I love it. The campus is beautiful, there are a ton of concerts (well, enough, and of all varieties). Ton of people, and the school is really strong in a lot of fields (not sure what you are planning on studying). Weather is pretty nice, can get cold in the winter, but you're gonna get that everywhere but California basically.
Columbia is ok, but I don't really like having a campus in the middle of the city. I've visited, had fun, but can't imagine actually being a student there for 4 years.
BU is waay too expensive, but I live right by it. Boston is pretty cool. Cheap housing absolutely not gonna happen.
