Biomedical Engineer Penn state univeristy park v. (Ucf, fsu,usf)

I am a senior and got into Penn state university park, University of central florida, Florida state university, university of south florida.

I want to be some kind of engineer most likely a biomedical engineer.
Is Penn state the best school for my education ?

Hey there I'm from Florida too, I chose Penn State because of its great engineering program.

I also got into UCF which is decent as well. FSU and USF aren't that known for anything technical though.

What are your out-of-pocket cost differences going to be for PSU vs. your in-state Florida choices?

If you want to work as an engineer, don't go into huge debt going to the better academic program. You will not be compensated for it when you get into industry.

PSU > USF > FSU > UCF for this particular field in my opinion.
