I got accepted into both schools for M.Arch with the same amount of finical aid. Cornell has an intimate program and a good reputation being an ivy league school, but Parsons is design school in the middle of NYC with lots of opportunities for NYC internships which is where I'd like to end up eventually.
Any input from anyone who went to either school or knows about them in any way would be much appreciated!

Cornell- I am certain you can easily get an internship in NYC if you attend Cornell. The name will take you further in the future.

@ archinet thanks for responding! was wondering if anyone would. really in a dilemma as I'm international and don't know much about either school. so do you think the cornell name is quite important then? they both have me the same amount of aid so they would cost similar amounts

Yes the Cornell name is more prestigious for sure.
