Hi,
I’ve gotten into SJSU for Aerospace Engineering and UC Merced for Mechanical Engineering. I’ve also been waitlisted at UCR and UCSC(both for electrical engineering). If I choose SJSU, I will most likely switch to Electrical Engineering. Also, I will most likely not choose UC Merced, so I have chosen SJSU at this point. So I am now extremely confused. Assuming I get off the waitlist for both the UCs, which is the best college of the 3 for double E?
Assume that you wont get off of the waitlists.
Most engineering majors, at the UC’s are impacted.
Learn to love SJSU.
Agree with @aunt_bea that the 2 waitlisted schools should not be considered in your decision. SJSU all the way and even if you get off the waitlist, SJSU has a very respectable EE program and the location offers great internship/job opportunities. SJSU’s EE program is ABET accredited so you have the assurance that their curriculum meets all the necessary standards.

Be sure to check the change of major policies.

I wouldn’t be so quick to rule out UCM without a visit.
Walking the campus and talking to current students is the best way to get a sense of the student experience.
Congrats and good luck!
