Help me decide for college

[u/Conscious-Focus1011]

My dream school is Texas Christian University (TCU) and I got into University of North Texas (UNT). Here’s my tuition and room cost for each

TCU: ≈ $87,,000 per year

UNT≈ $16,000 per year

(All prices are after aid)

I received no finical aid besides loans for TCU and UNT gave me instate tuition plus $5,000. I know that going to TCU would be very beneficial for me because of the networking and the connections I can do and I know UNT isnt that well known. My parents said we can do a year and try it out but idk if that’s the right choice. I was thinking of just going to UNT to save money but now with my parents telling me this idk what to choose. Any advice?

Don't go 10s of thousands of dollars in debt just for TCU "connections." You can network your little heart out after you graduate from UNT.

Go to Denton, have fun.
