Not decided yet but leaning engineering or CS.

So forget it as an int’l applicant. You need to go down a tier or two to have any real shot — still lots of great schools.

Ideally it would be colleges with best faculty, high quality education, diverse social group of students and career service.

That is your take from my post, but don't have to be sophisticated as it is not for me and not looking to attend college now.

I'll bet that you post this same response repeatedly. If you don't like a thread topic, then just ignore it rather than spending time trying to ruin the experience for others.
