<p>As an international student look for a large student body in a diverse city and all the usual blah blahs. Don’t do it like my friend’s kid (Indian 2nd gen) that went to Iowa State from a huge metropolis and promptly freaked out a week later…</p>
<p>From the first list Northeastern is a large school and the other three are more specialty /focused schools. All very good. From the top list I’d say WPI if you’re the geek type, Stevens if you like the culture of nearby NYC or Northeastern (Boston) or RIT if you want a small quiet place to spend a few years :).</p>
