University of Iowa vs University of Arizona

I am stuck between UofA and Iowa, i have been accepted to both and I plan on majoring in marketing, I need help deciding which school to attend because I am equally between them both right now, distance is not a huge factor for me. Here's a list of pros and cons I made:

Side note: The whole social scene really is stressing me out, all the reviews I read online say AZ has a huge Greek life and if you are not in it you are nothing, which I am not opposed to rushing for a frat but it is not what I really want.

Iowa
Pro:
Close to home (from Chicago)
Direct admission to business school (tippie)
Know people there
Good social scene (Do not need to join Greek life)

Con:
It's somewhat of a second choice
More expensive

Arizona (UofA NOT ASU)
Pro:
Better ranked business school (Eller)
Located in Arizona ( I really enjoy being outdoors and hiking/mountains, big part of why I like AZ)
Cheaper
Weather of course


Con:
Read some bais reviews online that scared me
Far from home
Would need to join Greek life ( I'm not opposed to but not really wanting to)

Please help me out! Thanks!!!!!

oh please you do not have to join a frat to have a social life at AZ

Not every student is in a frat or sorority there and they are very expensive to be in

At the University of Arizona in 2010 greek student population was 12% Meaning over 80% of the total student population was NOT in a frat or sorority

I would choose UAZ simply based on the warm winters. Also, never go with your second choice. Remember, your choice will determine the next 4 years of your life.
