<p>just got off the waitlist at yale, planning on doing engineering. </p>
<p>Yale is offereing 15,000 more a year, but their program isn't as highly ranked as duke's. duke has the research triangle though. </p>
<p>which would be better?</p>
<p>What kind of engineering?</p>
<p>Yale has chemical, electrical, and mechanical.</p>
<p>Duke has biomedical, civil, electrical and computer, and mechanical.</p>
<p>Are you saying that Yale will cost $15,000 less per year, or $60,000 less total?</p>
<p>Yale is offering much better aid. In addition, it is Yale - an excellent school no matter the specific rankings. Unless you want to go biomedical, I would say Yale.</p>
