Brown/Brown. It had its ups and down socially (as it would have for anyone who wasn’t a former NYC private school kid at the time) but was a great experience academically and set me up for a great life.

Limited financial aid at JHU. Got a combination of large scholarships from U of R - parents said “you are going there.” Graduated with no debt and a job offer.
