<p>Hello People</p>

<p>I am an international student.</p>

<p>Well I applied to a limited number of colleges for a B.S Civil Engineering degree and I need your advice on the best possible choice I can make. Factors I am taking into account are Climate, Education, Research opportunities, Internship opportunities, reputation and scope of scholarships after the freshman year.
So here goes the list for consideration:</p>

<p>UT Austin (****rell) - Honors, 1,000 USD scholarship for the freshman year.
UIUC - James Scholar, Honors
Purdue - Honors
Penn State
Rose Hulman - 3,000 USD for the first year.
Drexel University - 17,000 USD for the first year.</p>

<p>Every reply is appreciated in advance.</p>

<p>Rose Hulman is by far the best if you do not mind a small school.
The rest are all very good. You do not specify what climate you are from, warm like UT or cold like Purdue. Why does research matter when you are going for a BS, research actually hurts, it means TAs, which RH does not have.
A major factor is whether you can set up residency in the state and get in-state tuition after frosh year. If you can, UT and PSU rise to the top if money is a major consideration.</p>
