Biomedical Engineering: Rutgers Vs. Stony brook

<p>I got into Rutgers' engineering for Biomedical engineering, and into Stony Brook's AOP Biomedical engineering major.
I've been doing alot of research and I honestly have not been able to come to a good decision.
Anyone's opinion would be greatly appreciated :)</p>

<p>Where would you get state residency, NJ or NY, because they both seem like well respected schools.</p>

<p>I would get state residency if I stayed in NJ, but only after a year of paying out-of-state…same as NY its a bit complicated lol</p>

<p>I’m leaning towards Rutgers more though because I like the school spirit they have…
I mean if their academic accomplishments are about the same, it would be better to look at other factors as well wouldnt it?</p>
