<p>My parents are pretty concerned with how Vanderbilt doesn't come up in any USNews undergrad chemical engineering rankings, but I liked the sound of the engineering program and the close help I'll get from professors.. I don't think I'll get it at UF. Is it going to be worth the extra 8,000 for me to go to Vandy's engineering?? Which is better for chemical engineering??? Research opportunities?? Input please!</p>
<p>anyone? research opportunities and someone needs to dissuade the US News rankings???</p>
