If it was your child, which of the above would you recommend for engineering?

We are California residents and we need to choose from one of the above schools.

Any insights would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

When choosing between colleges, I had my son’s consider the following items:

  1. Costs
  2. Academics
  3. Social Scene
  4. Location
  5. Class sizes

Ultimately I asked them where would they be happy spending the next 4 years?

UPDATE: My child got accepted into UCSD. So anyone care to give us their two cents regarding how SDSU, UCSD, UC Davis and Colorado School of Mines might stack up for engineering?

@GoDogsGo: Where does your son/daughter want to go should be the first question and what specific Engineering discipline?

All the schools have ABET accreditation so academically they would all be similar in the course curriculum. Differences would be in location, social scene and finances.
