Cal State LA VS. Cal Poly Pomona on mechanical engineering major

Hi, everyone. I am a second year community college student major in mechanical engineering student. I applied to transfer last fall, and got accept by cal LA and cal poly pomona. I read some good and bad comment on both of them. Cal poly pomona have good reputation, but I heard they finish last on the competition. Cal LA seems got low rating, and some people say “Cal state is not for STEM.” Can you help me out and give me some advice on them? Thank you so much.

Sincerely
yan
