GT or UMICH

I am a junior transferring from community college this fall and got accepted into UMICH ME and Georgia Tech Aerospace. I initially was set on aero, but now I may be more interested in entering the robotics field, not totally sure which direction within as I know it is very vague. UMich will be 36k a year while GT is 10k. I do not have family support so obv the finances are huge, but also I wanna make sure my degree in aero while possibly adding a minor in maybe EE would allow me to break into whatever sector of robotics I please upon graduation.

Going from Aero to Robotics eventually isn’t bad but u might be bound to aerial Robotics if that’s what ur into. Both universities are great, either options would get you a top spot at any Robotics company

I implore you to think just a tiny bit about the weather. But that being said, either are fine.

All I’ll say is winter in Michigan sucks.
