I'm an incoming freshman and was accepted to both University of Texas Austin Interior Design program and University of Oregon Interior Architecture program. I chose to go to the University of Oregon because I live in Oregon and will get in state tuition plus I got a $24,000 merit based scholarship so I am looking at $100,000.00 for their five year Bachelor of Interior Architecture degree. I did not get a scholarship for Texas and I would be looking at $200,000.00 for their four year Bachelor of Science in Interior Design. I'm still wondering if I made the right choice. Any thoughts?

$100k to $200k to learn how to pick furniture from a catalog and move cubicles around does not seem like a smart investment.

As neither one appears to make you eligible to eventually get an architectural license, I suggest Oregon because it is less expensive.
Putting the name 'interior architecture" on an interior design program is misleading to say the least.

Non Sequitur, could you not answer every thread before everybody with your demeaning and sarcastic posts? You must be a real jerk with low self esteem. In fact, you are as bad as your nemesis Richard Balkins.
How the hell you came up with "$100k to $200k to learn how to pick furniture from a catalog and move cubicles around does not seem like a smart investment" ? Do you really think that's all what the interior designers do?

Based on what Beepbeep says, that's another good reason to go to Oregon instead of Austin.
