SFSU vs. Chico for engineering?

While my top choice is SDSU, I want to apply to a Cal State in NorCal as well for a back up. My intended major is Computer Science for all Cal States. Even though SFSU isn’t renowned for its academics, I absolutely love San Francisco. I love the diversity, and being an LGBT student, I feel like I would belong, the big city feel, and the weather. I’m not a big fan of the small town in the middle of nowhere vibe, but I do know that it’s a pretty good school, much more of a party school than SFSU, and has more outdoorsy stuff to do. I also know that out of most of the Cal States, it has the best college experience because it’s in a college town, etc. Which school is better for engineering though?

Thanks!

Chico is probably better academically but, that won’t matter if you are miserable. Apply to both, spend some time on campus and make your decision later.
