<p>I'm really confused, can't figure out which one is better for computer engg, Purdue or UIUC???? Any help is appreciated.
THX!!!</p>
<p>uiuc for sures</p>
<p>Definitely UIUC...alumni have founded Oracle, PayPal, YouTube, AMD, Mosaic, and so much more...plus it is ranked 5th in the country by U.S. News.</p>
<p>Whichever one is cheaper.</p>
<p>UIUC program is ranked higher and is probably better and more prestigious.</p>
<p>But I would probably pick the one that costs less if I was you.</p>
<p>Sounds like UIUC is more prestigious for engg, but what about the social scene???</p>
<p>UIUC Compared to Purdue--much better. Compared to Wisconsin--small-time.</p>
<p>Is UW that much better than UIUC? Which UW - Madison, Milwaukee...</p>
<p>UW-Madison. Yes, it's much better than UI too socially. UI lacks much in the way of off-campus spots and is very frat dominated. I was in downtown Madison last Saturday night and it was crazy--even though they lost to Ohio State. Just 1000's of people everywhere. Every one of the 50 or so bars/clubs had a line to get in.</p>
