<p>so i got into two of my top choices...upenn (seas) and duke (pratt)...as an international, which one is better?...Which one will probably be better for a future on the east coast? Which one has the prestige and name in the US? Thanks you</p>
<p>What do you want to major in? I'd think Duke would be the better choice (both are great though...obviously).</p>
<p>Penn and Duke have comparable prestige/name, although a common person would probably be more likely to recognize Duke. A lot of people in the U.S. don't know that Penn is an Ivy...but these people, their opinions, and the whole question of prestige = irrelevant. You should pick based on fit because both are amazing schools.</p>
<p>Sigma, he said he wants to major in engineering. I agree Duke is superior. Penn SEAS is known to be easier to get into than Penn CAS.</p>
<p>hmm thanks anyone else?</p>
