Help! Deadline approaching. Deciding between 3 schools

I originally posted yesterday...thought I should add more today, but for some reason my old account wasn't working so I had to use my brothers old one.

I narrowed my choices down to rutgers, tcnj, and udel. I'm down to the wire and can't decide between the three. I want to study civil engineering, although it could change. My brother is a business major at udel and loves it. I really like the campus and dorms at udel and my brother has said good things about the professors. TCNJ is also a great campus, but much smaller, meaning more facetime with professors (but my brother says he never has problems meeting with professors at udel). Rutgers of course is huge and has no real central campus.

Does anyone have an opinion on which school as the best reputation for engineering and the best opportunities for research etc.? Overall, which do you think will provide the best experience? By the way, all three colleges would be about the same price for me because I got $7,000 from udel and $2,000 at Rutgers. Also, I got into the Honors College at Rutgers.

ANY INPUT AT ALL WOULD BE WELCOME

The engineering program at TCNJ is hard, from what I hear, but very respected.. Plus, in my opinion, TCNJ has a nicer campus than Del or Rutgers.. I hear UDel is a big party school (cousin went there) so it depends on how focused you are
