No safeties?

#

Northeastern University, Drexel University, and Kettering University have some of the best co-op programs in the US

#

I was a computer engineering student in college, and am more than happy to discuss my experience

#

Northeastern would be the closest in terms of student life

#

Kettering is very rigorous, so most of your time is spent studying. So it made the mediocre student life tolerable

#

I usually had like 2-3 hours a day to do fun stuff during academic terms (I was a CompE student there)

#

Drexel also has ok student life from what Iโ€™ve heard

I might suggest Arizona State or even U of Arizona. TSMC is building a big chip making plant in Arizona and will hopefully be looking for a bunch of Comp E folks. Also supposed to have general very good engineering programs and they may pay you to be there with National Merit. And big city or mid-size city depending on which you prefer. But it will be warm.

add USC, as you will get 1/2 tuition thx to Nat'l Merit.

I would suggest cal poly slo/cal poly Pomona

#

Not sure if tuition is still expensive for OOS bc u live in Oregon

#

And definitely apply to all of the schools that consider national merit

#

ik someone mentioned USC

UC Merced is the only WUE UC
