Purdue vs Ohio State for CE

<p>I would like to know your opinion on these schools: Purdue and Ohio State. I am admitted into their MS program in Structures. </p>

<p>Purdue is obviously the better school, but my department has told me that Structures usually doesn't offer aid to first year students. So I have to shell out about 30K at least for the first year. </p>

<p>Ohio State is not in the same league as Purdue, but its not far off. The upside here is that I won a University Fellowship and a prof is willing to provide additional financial support for the additional two quarters after one year of fellowship. I will have a full ride here, and I don't have to do anything for that! </p>

<p>So what do you all think?</p>
