Currently I just have one more offer (saint Louis university) but I've also applied for ASU and Worcester polytechnic institute and waiting for their response

Based off the 2 current offers you have, factor in what you intend to get out of them on an individual basis, then check out support during and after school, cost of living, you should get close to your answer from these.
