[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son was waitlisted at CMU. The campus is small. He has friends there, its not super social because it's very intense. The kids are busy studying.  We visited, the campus is urban and compact.

He attends Purdue, loves it. The work is also tough and demanding but he is also involved in many clubs and social events. The midwest vibe is very awesome. [b]Purdue has a sprawling campus that is very attractive but remote - hour or two from major cities, but who cares, there are 45000 kids your own age on campus so its not like they are looking for fine dining and theatre opportunities.[/b]  Fun sports culture.

The years fly by and the "nearby" cities are meaningless. Purdue has a national and world wide engineering rep, and is a heck of a value.

So choose on your budget tolerance and whether you like big or small schools.  Also admissions might choose for you.

Know nothing on Lehigh.[/quote]

This. Even in 2000, I never felt isolated.
