Ranked from most important to least important (in my opinion):
1. Academic strength of intended major (engineering)
2. Good vibes (nice people, nice facilities, etc.)
3. Prestige (I don't care for the top schools, because they often focus on research versus educating the undergrads; but it can't be a school that nobody's heard of).
#1 and #2 are about the same, but I definitely feel that I would rather sacrifice a little of the good vibe if the school will prepare me for a successful career. I wouldn't go to a school at which I felt a bad vibe, but if it's like 75% or more of "good vibe" if you will, then I'd consider it.
