<p>Dartmouth College and Cornell University are my top two choices, and once I get all my testing done by the beginning of June, I hope to visit both of these and decide on which one I'd like to apply early decision to.</p>
<p>How are these two schools similar to each other? How are they different? Which would be best for engineering (I know Cornell is rated highest out of all the Ivies for engineering on USNews, but I don't care about those rankings)? </p>
<p>[I know that both of these schools have virtually unparalleled academic integrity. I also know that they have rural campuses, and that Cornell is more than three times larger than Dartmouth in terms of undergrad population.]</p>
