I also note Miami of Ohio, Case Western, and San Jose State (#2) on the list. All have engineering, as do others. Like all such rankings, take them with a grain of salt, parameters and small changes in data can have an impact.

San Jose State has a huge advantage in Silicon Valley! Just as an FYI, here’s the merit aid grid for Miami of Ohio, which is larger than your D is looking at, but we certainly found this something to think about,
