Hi I am currently holding a place to study physics at Oxford(MPhys) and BSc Physics at National University of Singapore(NUS). Studying at Oxford will cost me much more than studying locally at NUS. I was wondering what are the chances of getting into a good US PhD physics programme (such as Princeton) from these two universities. Will the extra cost of going to Oxford be worth it? Advice appreciated.

Regards,
