K9 - You might want to consider Tufts. It is about the size your d likes and it has engineering. Although your list appears to be more southern than northern schools.

In addition to Mudd:

Olin in Wellesley, MA.

Not exactly a typical college experience (tuition is free/hypercompetitive), but arguably one of the best engineering programs in the country (and they're pretty tight with Babson, which practically shares the campus).

It is a nice perk, but it's only guarantee if you can afford to pay full pop for a graduate degree in engineering. The guarantee part doesn't say anything about money.

I'd second Brassmonkey's suggestion of Olin. My son is just finishing his freshman year there and it's been great. He'd looked at all kinds of LACs and engineering schools and loved Harvey Mudd as well. Although Olin only has engineering majors, students can cross-register with Wellesley (2 miles down the road), Babson (100 yards from Olin), and Brandeis (a bit further out). He's managing to fit in his interests along with his requirements, and is making plans to study abroad his junior year. In addition, Olin works particularly hard to gender balance their classes, with close to 50/50 male/female ratio.
