<p>So I'm a junior in high school and I'm starting to consider schools. It's always been my dream to live in Manhattan, so naturally I looked at Columbia almost immediately. However, I've heard mixed things about their engineering program. Is it any good?</p>
<p>These are the other schools I'm looking at for engineering:
UC Berkeley
Cornell University
University of Illinois
University of Michigan
Northwestern University</p>
<p>Is the Columbia engineering program on par with any of these? Thanks!</p>
