    BU or Umiami? ( college help)

BU is a great school but I was given no aid so I would have to pay 60k and receive no help for graduate school. While Umiami...

    Boston U vs Loyola Marymount for Film Production

    I have been accepted to both programs but am struggling to choose between the two. LMU clearly has the location advantage being right in LA, Boston U seems like a better all around school.
