Canon t6s (760D) or 70D?

I am debating on whether or not to buy the 70D or the Rebel T6s. Currently I have the Rebel T3 that I've had for a couple years now, however I am starting photography college courses and want to upgrade for that and other reasons.

I've looked at countless reviews for each of these cameras and comparisons and still can't seem to decide. If someone could help me decide it would be great.

-I like the smaller body of the T6s, I'm used to the lighter camera of the T3 so I'd like to have it small if possible, but that's not too big of a deal.

-I like the T6s Wi-Fi AND NFC. I know the 70D has wifi but the NFC is pretty cool.

-T6s has 4 more megapixels in resolution, is that really that big of a difference?

-70D is closer to professional grade camera apparently, and I really want to upgrade closer to professional since after college I plan to do photography for a living.

-I've heard the 70D has more control and options over things, is that true as well? I saw reviews before the t6s was released that said rebels the options are kinda hidden under menus, but now that it's out I can't find anything on that. Anybody know?

-I also would like better ISO performance in low light, is there a difference in these cameras?

One of the big reasons I want to upgrade from the T3 is for image quality, is there any difference in image quality between these two cameras?

Also, feel free to suggest other Canon cameras that might fit my needs, this is my first time buying my own camera.
