<p>My son got accepted to 7 great schools (but not MIT, his first choice) and is having trouble deciding between them.</p>
<p>U Pitt
Case Western
UVA
Drexel
Tuane
U Del
RPI</p>
<p>Pros and cons of each are SO welcome!</p>
<p>Thanks in advance.</p>
<p>It would be better if he has the list and his feelings about each school. After all he must have some idea of where he would like to go.</p>
<p>If he’s sure about ChemE, U Del is top 10 because of the investments made by Dupont. ChemE is way above the rest of the school. </p>
<p>Pittsburgh’s curriculum is weird and I think would be hard to transfer credit if for some reason he doesn’t like it. </p>
<p>RPI and Case are quite rigorous. </p>
<p>Drexel UVa and Tulane are probably less sought after.</p>
<p>My son graduated Case in Engineering last year, and is now in a PhD program in Nuclear Engineering and will most likely have a co-op at NASA this summer. Case gave my son a generous merit stipend as a Freshman ,and increased it by 5K in his Junior year. I can’t say enough good things about this school. The weather isn’t so great in the winter, but they have many tunnels to get to different buildings. Case helped him get a co-op at GE during his Junior year. Move in was a breeze and so was graduation. They plan everything so well here.</p>
