<p>Safety schools are Wayne State and Michigan State University. The rest of my schools are University of Minnesota, University of Michigan, and Purdue University. Thats all I have so far. What are some good college choices for me and my stats. I want a good program and college city type school. I am thinking about transfering after 2 years to an ivy leauge, but still unsure about this move.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>Why? If you go to some place like Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin, Delaware, Purdue, or Texas, you will be at a highly regarded school for chemical engineering. Most Ivy League schools do not have as good a reputation in the subject.</p>

<p>That said, watch out for costs. While Minnesota has a relatively low out of state cost, many out of state public schools will be expensive with little financial aid.</p>

<p>Assuming you are a Michigan resident, if you are not certain of MSU being a safety, MTU and WMU also have ABET-accredited chemical engineering degree programs.</p>
