Thank you for your response.

I'm not American, but I will likely be starting college there in the coming fall. What you've said has made me reconsider my options.

I have received an offer from a T5 College in the UK and am awaiting decisions from big US colleges. As of now, the only places I've been accepted in America are CWRU, some LACS, and FSU. Not too tempting options.

The only reason in my mind to take the leap for US is that their might be a smoother roadmap to grad school, if I did my undergrad there.

I might have to think this through.

Unfortunately, with Trump's attack on higher education and defunding research in the US, grad school may look entirely different than it does now. The sad thing is with Trump at the helm, the crystal ball gets hazy 4 weeks into the future, let alone 4 years. That's the definition of chaos, you can't plan.
