<p>ok so I'm thinking about applying to these schools but wanted to know how strong (academically) their Aerospace Engineering programs are?
the rankings?
the rigor?
the prestige?
and which one will help me the most when it comes to obtaining jobs?</p>
<p>University of Southern California
UCLA
University of Florida</p>
<p>in addition i will like to know how good the Astronautical Engineering program from USC is...?</p>
<p>THANK YOU</p>
<p>please????????????</p>
<p>Aerospace Engineering:</p>
<h1>10 UCLA</h1>
<h1>27 University of Florida</h1>
<p>USC-not in the top 33</p>
<p>These are for their graduate program, according to the National Research Council.</p>

<p>Go with the option that's cheapest for you.</p>
<p>I should probably note that due to its proximity to Kennedy Space Center UF sends a lot of people to NASA over the summer. I have no idea if you're in-state, but OOS tuition at UF is some of the cheapest around. I can't help you in assessing UF in any of the metrics you asked for, however.</p>
<p>yeah i live i florida, so UF seems like a very good choice</p>
<p>PLUS
i have around 80 college credits from FIU and Miami Dade College that will transfer without a problem.</p>
<p>if i make to USC or UCLA i highly doubt they would accept most of my credits</p>
<p>im still applying to USC though... hahaha</p>
