School dilemma - undergrad

Hey, I'm a Canadian in 12th grade and I just got into UMich Ross. I applied ED2 to UChicago, and I think I have a really high chance to get in. I need to decide whether I want to switch my ED2 to RD so it's not binding and would like some advice please :)

I want to go into finance or entrepreneurship, I don't really know yet to be honest. Ross would definitely be much easier academically and it's more fun. But Chicago is a great school and I have some family who went, I also think I'd connect pretty well with all the nerds there. 

Let me know if you have any thoughts or if there's anything you want to know that would help, thanks!

Stay with Ross or ED2 to Chicago
