<p>Ok, I got into both UCLA and CMU for EE, and before I was pretty sure i wanted to go to UCLA, since I like the environment there better, but after my parents gave me a big spiel about jobs and my future and whatnot, I guess I should find out more about the two. </p>

<p>It seems like CMU is the better school for EE, but how much of a difference will going to CMU over UCLA be for getting into a top grad program or getting a great job? Besides that, please tell me anything that will help me make the best decision.</p>

<p>If weather is a big concern than you will most likely despise the weather in Pittsburgh, especially compared to California.</p>

<p>I can't offer much comparison to UCLA, since I have no notion of how their EE program is there. But I can say that it is easy to get a good job if you graduate from CMU.</p>
