[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is Umich vs Penn for engineering?[/quote]

No difference unless you want to work in finance/consulting…what Penn engineering gives you is more optionality at lower gpa levels

If you want to work in engineering / tech, a 3.5+ grad from Michigan will be the same as Penn

That’s Nonsense.  That’s like saying there’s no difference between Harvard and Michigan in engineering.  You’d probably say Harvard is better than Penn too, since it’s ranked higher by USNWR as a university.  Any grad from Michigan with an equal GPA to a Penn grad in tech/engineering will be looked on similarly.  Michigan is known as an engineering powerhouse; Penn, not so much. [/quote]

False - not for non-engineering jobs, which Is what I was talking about.

You didn’t read my post clearly - must be a state school graduate.

Penn engineering gives way more optionality than Michigan engineering.

Suppose junior/senior year you decide to want to do finance or consulting…penn sets you up for that way more than Michigan just due to sheer volume of firms that recruit oci even outside of Wharton.

So that’s my point - Penn gives you access to all opportunities Michigan does, and then some more.

That’s just the way it is.
