NCSU vs Cornell

Hello! I'm starting to try and narrow down schools and I'm currently specifically comparing NCSU and Cornell, and for context, I have specific interests in exotics/wildlife and infectious disease/public health. I know it's common to go to the cheapest school, but in both schools, there's a way for each one to be cheaper than the other, so I'm less looking at cost and more at other factors. Thoughts?
