<p>So, I have to choose two schools out of three to apply to: Boston University, Northeastern, and George Washington. I want to go to school for Physics, Chemical Engineering, or Mechanical Engineering. (I'm applying to Georgia Tech already). What do you think?</p>
<p>If you want to look at the overall USNWR rankings for Engineering, both BU and Northeastern are ranked 57th while GWU is ranked 92nd. The downside to dropping GW is now you remove a school in DC, while keeping two in Boston. The intern/work program at Northeastern is pretty cool and I have a female neighbor who got a nice Engineering scholarship there also. Why do you have to drop one, if I may ask? If it is application fee related, it might be best to bite the bullet and let the application process play itself out with all 3 schools and see who offers the best financial/merit package. Good luck!</p>
