<p>Are you talking 3-2 programs? People who do that get 2 undergrad degrees, btw. Also, financial aid is NOT guaranteed by the second school (ie Penn), so you might be screwing yourself over (especially as an international student). You’re looking at possibly $60k a year for 2 years, on top of however much you’re paying for the 3 years at the LAC. </p>
<p>It may indeed be cheaper to go to a university that offers ChemE. What are your stats? If you take a hit on prestige (I know a lot of international students don’t like to), you’ll be more likely to receive merit aid. </p>
<p>Also, this link might be helpful in finding schools that are need-blind for internationals:
