I found mixed reviews of Tandon online. Is Tandon a good engineering school?

Yes it is. My brother went there and really enjoyed it. NYU is an internationally recognized brand and although it may not be as highly ranked as other engineering schools (i.e. it is 36th ranked according to US News) rankings are not everything the connections and reputability are very large postives. The main negative is the price so if you get (or got into) a well known state school for engineering (e.g. Georgia Tech or Texas A&M) those are probaly better options.

In keeping with @Publisher’s line of thought, why are you interested in NYU? The USNWR engineering rankings are highly flawed. Several upper east coast schools with otherwise good reputations for the whole are over ranked in engineering, sometimes by a long margin. There’s no way most practicing engineers would put Tandon at #36, if you even believe you can numericall rank such things. ABET sets a pretty high baseline for engineering. There are quite a few I’d choose over NYU.
