Location/Region: Northeast; UK; Toronto/Quebec; Bay Area
Major: MechE concentration aerospace
GPA: 4.0 (W) 3.75 (UW) 1580 SAT
Curriculum: Mid to High Course Rigor.
Size: medium sized campus. I prefer either urban areas or total wilderness. In terms of student body, > 2000 but < 10000 is a good metric I think?
Costs: financial aid is preferred, but I've won a few research comps and a couple scholarships so it's not really a priority.

currently considering for safety:
rutgers (in state)
penn
additional: I would like somewhere with a decent party scene. The dorms should be pretty decent, and I want a very research & venture focused environment. That being said, I'm super flexible and ready to consider all options, even if they dont hit all listed criteria!
