<p>Texas residency is great news! The public universities there are not particularly expensive. The University of Texas at Austin has a list of community colleges by state at:</p>

<p>[U.S</a>. Community Colleges, by State](<a href=“http://www.utexas.edu/world/comcol/state/]U.S”>http://www.utexas.edu/world/comcol/state/)</p>

<p>Click on TX in the list of state abbreviations in the upper-right-hand corner or scroll down the page for the links. I’ve just looked at a couple of links for you and they seem pretty good. Pick the area where you have your “residence” and check out the community colleges near there. Many will have three different tuition/fee schedules based on local residence, in-state residence, and out-of-state residence.</p>

<p>If you spend a bit of time online you should hit on several that have coordination agreements in engineering with the programs at the public universities in Texas.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>

<p>Go to Georgia in my opinion</p>

<p>This is a 4-horse race among GTech, Purdue, Wisconsin, and UCSD. If bigtime sports is interesting to you, dump UCSD. If you can’t hack cold weather, dump Wisconsin. If you don’t like ugly campuses and urban distractions, dump GTech. If you need to be near any sort of urban excitement, dump Purdue.</p>

<p>Regarding residency - in all the states with which I’m familiar, one cannot establish residency while enrolled in school. In Georgia, you’d have to have moved to the state for some demonstrated purpose other than establishing in-state residency for tuition purposes, > 12 months prior to matriculating.</p>

<p>Seems like there are many Californians on this board. ;)</p>

<p>Academically, the most well-rounded school is not UCSD, it’s Wisconsin on your list. </p>

<p>Engineering-wise, as far as ranking goes, UCSD isn’t the second on your list. Other than GT, Purdue and Wisconsin are also better too. RHIT doesn’t grant PhDs but I’d say it’s undergrad engineering program is also better than UCSD.</p>

<p>I would say look at where you would feel like you belong. All are good schools…some on your list are great schools.</p>

<p>Rose Hulman is one of those great schools. But is a smaller school 1800. More personalized attention.</p>

<p>As they said above top undergrad school for 10 years in a row! My D goes there and loves the school and could not think of another place she would love to go.</p>

<p>She also got in at U of Mich and U of Ill.</p>
