[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Combination of both. [/quote] +1. For example, I think it would be foolish turning down a T10 school for, say, Purdue, even for engineering.[/quote] You made a good point. But T10 is obvious. Even T20 is rather obvious. But it gets murkier at T25 etc…[/quote] Not really. For undergrad, as long as the program is ~T50-60, your kid's success will come from what your kid puts into it. More important is the size of classes, access to faculty, access to the classes your kid actually needs and wants, internship opportunities/coop program (if engineering or major that typically offers coops [b]at Non Drexel/RIT/NEU schools)[/b], access to undergrad research, what companies recruit on campus, etc. Undergrad engineering programs if ABET accredited are all very similar. [/quote] Could you elaborate on why you call out these three?[/quote]
