Deciding between colleges

College Search & Selection
1

<p>So I am approaching that time where I have to decide where I want to go next year.
I was hoping that I would get into Carnegie Mellon, but that didn't happen. So now I have to choose between my other choices.</p>

<p>Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI)
Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT)
Stevens Institute of Technology
Embry Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU)</p>

<p>Im not sure which one I should pick. I like that Stevens is in an urban area. I just wasn't too impressed when I visited. RPI was beautiful, but it is not in or near an urban area. The weather is also not that nice. And my sister goes there, so that would be a little awkward. I haven't seen RIT yet, but I hear it has a nice campus. Bu I also year that Rochester gets A LOT of snow. ERAU is in Florida (VERY humid), and is very specified. If I ever want to change my major, that won't be possible (unless of course I transferred out of the college). Academically, I believe that RPI, RIT, and Stevens are at the same level. I'm not entirely sure though.</p>

<p>Any opinions/advice would be greatly appreciated!</p>

<p>Oh, and I applied to the University of Southern California, but I haven’t heard from them yet. If I get in, it will move to the top of my list, and I will decide what to do from there. If I don’t get in, my list won’t change.</p>

<p>The College Search & Selection Forum (where your question was moved to) is the correct forum for asking questions about college comparisons. Tell your friends. </p>

<p>Good luck in the decision.</p>
