Difficult College Decision

Hey everyone,

I'm new to the forums and am currently in the process of making a college decision. I was fortunate enough to be recruited for sports and narrowed my decision down to two schools: Brown and West Point. Thoughts on which school would be better for a long-term career in IB/VC/General business/finance?

The service aspect of West Point is something I have looked at thoroughly and am interested in. I am also interested in how that would effect my long-term career prospects.

Thanks!

Matt
