Seems pretty clear to me but would appreciate other views.

These are scholarship numbers? Harvard's probably the same price as Columbia and only a little pricier than NYU here, taking into account NYC cost of living. I could see a fringe argument for NYU here if you're really into its PI vibe, but I doubt that that would be worth forgoing the stronger LRAPs at HLS/CLS anyway.

The main reasons not to go to Harvard would be 1) more substantial scholarships elsewhere in the T14 (surely you got some?) or 2) if you can negotiate NYU/Columbia up to $150k or so.

Yeah, I'll see if I can get the NY schools to 150k. Got 90 from Berkeley and 120 from Duke. Harvard beats everything so far in my view.

At these numbers, Harvard is an easy choice. Congrats.

Harvard. Unless you can get the other schools to bump up their schollys seems like the clear winner to me.

Definitely H with those numbers, but you should try your best to widen the gap!
