Hello all, I need some second opinions.
I’ve been accepted to a few more colleges but my decision comes down to CU Boulder and UW Madison.
UW is much more prestigious, but CU has a lot of tech companies around it so I imagine that there would be more internship opportunities if I went there.
I got the Presidential Scholarship from CU, a total of $55,000. I got no scholarship from UW, but the cost isn’t the biggest deciding factor
Also, I’m not certain what engineering major to study, and I’m thinking about taking on 2 majors. And from what I’ve heard, I can’t double major within the engineering school at UW.
I’m not sure if prestige would benefit me more in the long run than internships. Also, I’m not sure about the role that internships play for an undergraduate education.
BTW, the other colleges that I’ve been accepted into are: UIUC, Penn State, and Virginia Tech
