USC vs. Stony Brook for engineering?

<p>Hello</p>

<p>I got into USC and Stony Brook but I don't know where to go. Stony Brook offered me a full scholarship for all four years, and USC requires me to pay a certain percentage after giving some financial aid. I'm leaning towards SB right now because I won't have to pay off thousands of dollars after I graduate, but I haven't decided for sure. Financial matters aside, what are some pros/cons of going to either college? I'd like to study engineering, probably mechanical engineering. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>
