[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]UCB/Cal - yes- but you have to be the type of kid who will thrive on the intensity not be crushed by it. 
UMich - yes - if it’s the best research university for your field.

UVA and UNC - absolutely not. These are regional flagships, great for instate students looking for a solid but not extraordinary education. They are equal to the midwestern flagships. [/quote]

Michigan is the only midwestern flagship that is comparable to UVA or UNC.[/quote]

Illinois, Purdue and others are better in some key areas.  Sweeping claims usually have no basis in realit.[/quote]

I could see a full pay engineering kid choosing Purdue, UIUC or Georgia Tech over a T20 private due to the program. There’s nothing at either UVA or UNC that a private T20 wouldn’t have to offer along with a much stronger peer group. [/quote]

+1  GT in particular has top ranked engineering programs with value pricing, even for OOS. But last 2 years almost impossible to get in unless apply EA. Purdue has highly ranked engineering programs with tuition and living cost significantly less than any other top engineering state schools.[/quote]
