Dell
Pros
- IS and scholarship means very low CoA ~40k
- Family is a few hours drive away
- Austin is a cool, fun city I've been to many times
- Program seems laidback and chill
- Very small class size makes me nervous
- Matches mostly in TX and I don't want to be limited or stay in Texas long-term
- Newish program, heard some people say it's too experimental/not set up great yet
- Might get bored in Austin since it's familiar
