I know fit and school environment matter a lot, and I will be considering those factors in my final decision, but based purely on reputation and strength of program, which should I choose. Iโm fortunate enough that I could pay for northeastern or Purdue if it will make a significant enough difference in my career/college life, thanks for the advice.
