Choosing the right University. Fun or Education? -

Fellas, I got a younger sister entering University next year and she has been driving me crazy with her back and forth decisions. At first she wants to go to a commuter school that is the best in the country for her program because she's ambitious, but it's difficult to get in and need a year of training. The school sorta sucks if you want to experience the "college life"
Now she wants to go to a lesser school that's far away because it's easier and has that whole college experience.
Ideally I want her to go to the commuter school and focus on her education but I'm not sure if it's fair to deprive her of that dorm life experience. I never got to experience it myself and regret it.
Any advice?

Exactly. I wouldn't want her to run into the likes of us.

Then you'd better make sure she gets into a university more reknown for academics than partying.
