I don't believe Longwood and Towson have engineering.
CMU= Carnegie Mellon? Incredibly competitive, even though it's "test optional."
VMI only if he has a sincere interest in becoming a military officer.[/quote]

CMU may be Central Michigan University.  That is more likely.

One of the robotics team members at our school chose a full ride at Central Mich for engineering vs. paying to go to U of M.  If he wants to work in Michigan, it will work out fine.

For OP's kid, I would definitely recommend a school that has excellent supports for remediation and retention vs. a focus on weeding out freshman engineers.  Many people get weeded out of engineering as freshmen.  It's a miserable process.  And sometimes a big waste of talent. Kids do the best they can in their local environment only to find it's not even enough to stay afloat at a tough school.

Somebody above mentioned FAMU engineers.   I had a couple classmates from that program in my MBA program.  I was impressed by them.  I would second taking a look at that.

A friend of mine who wanted small classes and personalized attention for her engineering major kid sent him to Marquette.  It's going well so far.[/quote]

Christopher Newport has an ABET EE program.
