Read campus reviews; find out which schools would be the best fits.
Decide what part of the country you want to be in.
Look at strengths of majors, etc.
Really, there is no right or wrong answer. Just do what feels right for you.

StudentReview et all?
East coast ... can't narrow it down any further :S
How would you suggest I go about that exactly? Looking at Rankings/Placements/??? ?

I would see look at every aspect of the college including social life, dorms and other infrastructure.

For dorms and infrastructure I can talk to current students, but social life is something VERY subjective right ?

-privates is usually better for international student experience than public
-prestige matter when you're out to into the real world (many will disagree with this, but based from personal experience it does matter a lot)
-location also matters = weather
-proximity to a big city might matter if you're picky about food
-check the companies which visit the school during career fair, if there are lots of IB/hedge fund/PE and famous multinational companies then it's probably a good school.
-check the variety of courses they offer
-check if they offer CPT courses and co-op program for international
-check how many international students are on campus
