Penn State worth it if not University Park?

<p>Hey guys!</p>

<p>I had applied to Penn State University Park for Mechanical Engineering but I got into the Harrisburg campus instead for MechE. I don't know how the academics there differ from University Park, but if I didn't get into University Park, then is it worth it to go to Harrisburg over other colleges I got into? Through the 2+2 program at Penn State, I will only spend 2 years at Harrisburg and then spend my last two years at University Park, but if the academics at Harrisburg aren't going to be as good as the ones at University Park, then is it worth it to spend two years there?</p>

<p>My other top choice is Northeastern. </p>

<p>I’d choose Northeastern if you can afford it</p>

<p>can you list all your choices and their net cost?
(net cost = (tuition+R&B) - (scholarships and grants) )</p>
