I’m having trouble deciding. My #1 preferred major (Aerospace Engineering) is at UT and not Texas Tech but Tech has Environmental Engineering which I like too. I would be like second class at UT but Honors at TTU. I can’t decide.
UT Austin will likely have more academic opportunities for you. Texas Tech is a great school but they also have spent a lot of money on student entertainment (bowling alleys, waterpark, etc.). Seems to me that UT is the place for you.
Were you admitted to your major at both?
Can you afford both?
Title says UT Cap, so OP’s chance of engineering after completing Cap is very low. OP, do you have other options for your major?
OK, so …
engineering for a CAP 'd student are basically nil, so either the student does Texas Tech Honors and engineering, or UT liberal arts.
OP, what do you prefer?
Or another school not mentioned …
