Safety and Targets for 3.7 weighted quirky bright not good test taker NJ white boy?

I think Penn State (~$17k) and UIUC (~$15k) have Rutgers ($14k) beat for tuition. Other states are pretty close too (Colorado is almost $14k for engineers).

Don’t take the sticker price as a given either. Sometimes there is aid, or local scholarships that bring the price down, and you won’t have to pay as much for transportation if he stays instate.
