<p>Hi, this is my first post
I have gotten my decisions back from colleges and limited it down to two schools
University of Michigan Ann Arbor and Stony Brook Suny</p>
<p>I am not sure which one to choose.
My major will be mechanical engineering
And I live in New York
I just want to hear some other peoples opinion before I make a decision.</p>
<p>Also I am waitlisted from Binghamton and RPI</p>

<p>Michigan is number 5 for mech engineering. If you have no financial issues, i.e., going to SUNY is a lot cheaper than UM, Michigan is your best choice.</p>
<p>Thanks
but, my parents do not want to pay the tuition for Michigan since its only a state university</p>
<p>If you can pay for UMich and you like the environment,</p>
<p>then by all means, GO TO MICHIGAN.</p>
<p>Not all state schools are created equal. Michigan’s opportunities and rep will go farther than a SUNY’s, though a great education is certainly possible at both.</p>
