<p>I may major in Chem Engineering, Econ, but I'm not sure yet what my major will be. </p>
<p>and none of those colleges gave any kind of financial aid , but</p>
<p>WashU and Rice may will give me something.</p>
<p>But nothing is certain.</p>
<p>which is the best college for me?</p>
<p>It’s almost May 1st and you are still stuck with all these schools?</p>
<p>Not Carnegie Mellon. Your heart is not in your work.</p>
<p>If you’re undecided on your major, both Wash U and Rice are incredibly flexible in changing schools/majors. Given that both will give you some money, I’d narrow it to these two.</p>
<p>are u instate for any of the publics? if so, go there.</p>
<p>anyways, go where it’s the cheapest. prbbly ur best bet if you don’t know where the hell you want to go.</p>
<p>I’m an international student so I am not a instate student for any of state schools</p>
<p>btw , I kindda wanna go either Hopkins or WashU … not sure though</p>
<p>I would choose Rice. Strong ChemE department, Houston is more of an international city than St. Louis, and it’s very flexible with majors.</p>

<p>Rice is the strongest in Chem Eng
UCLA is the strongest in Economics.</p>
<p>I would go to public (UCLA or Virginia) you get a great education for a cheaper price.</p>
<p>Also, you may consider a major city in case you need to get back home for some reason. Los Angeles, Houston are major hubs for international travel. If you are coming from Asia I would SERIOUSLY consider UCLA.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>According to the (15-year-old graduate school) NRC ranking that you linked, the strongest school for ChemEng on the OP’s list is actually CMU (# 12), followed by Rice (#21), UVA (#30), JHU (#36), WUSTL (#38) and UCLA (#39). Emory is unranked.</p>
<p>Emory is unranked because they don’t have engineering on their own, they do however have joint departments with Georgia Tech.</p>
<p>I say Emory just because I want smarter people with me in the class haha. but no seriously I would say Rice.</p>
<p>If it is between Hopkins and WashU, I think Hopkins offers a better undergraduate experience, smaller environment, easier access to internships up and down the east coast.
If you’re in STL, you can’t really get anywhere else. </p>
<p>I also think that WashU is notorious for being a safety school for the ivies. =/</p>
<ol>
<li>Congrats on getting into all of these great schools! (UVA is the school I want to go to in the future!)</li>
<li>Either Rice, WashU, or UCLA.</li>
