MSF Decision HELP

Hi everyone,Hope I'm posting this as the right subject. Never posted on WSO, but as I applied to MS programs, have been lurking and reading on WSO all the time during the application process.So I have MSF admits from Villanova and Rochester Simon (waiting on UT Austin). I'm leaning towards Nova, but have seen lots of conflicting opinions on the program. Everyone's fighting about it constantly on the platform and hard to know what to think of it. I know it's a GOOD program, but how good? And how does Rochester stack up against it?Want to be in NYC afterwards hoping to do IB, ER, or TAS.Any thoughts would be very much appreciated.
