I’m in a bit of a predicament. I’ve lived at home my whole life, even during undergrad. I now have the opportunity to attend a T20 school across the country, but I’m feeling very nervous about it. At the same time, I feel like it could be a great opportunity for me to grow. But going to the state school 10 minutes away feels like the easy choice.

Has anyone else been in a similar situation? I’d really appreciate any advice.

For context, the cost is the same for both schools.
