<p>I know Cornell is best for engineering (of the Ivies), but I'm looking at Princeton. I know that the Ivies aren't known for their engineering, so I was just wondering what the benefits would be of going to Princeton versus say Penn State, which is similarly ranked for engineering. What about things like job opportunities after college etc, and is it worth going into debt for Princeton (not a lot of debt, but some) when the U.S. News says that for engineering, it's not much better than Penn State (which for me is free because I'm in-state with a staff discount and a big scholarship). Any thoughts?</p>
<p>Are you planning to get a post-grad engineering degree, or to just to get an undergrad degree in engineering and then get a job?</p>
<p>That's the thing . . . I'm not sure if engineering is what I will eventually end up doing. I could stay in engineering all four years, or I could switch to something in the liberal arts. I could end up in grad school for engineering, I could end up in the industry, or I could end up in law or med school, who knows.</p>
<p>If that's the case, I would suggest "Princeton"</p>
<p>O God I have read so much of "sakky"'s posts now i am begining to think like "sakky" :P</p>
