Tribe,

Georgia Tech is a VERY good school, but the atmosphere is... unique. I almost went there for graduate school, but I wouldn't have wanted to go there for undergrad. Still, it is something that is personal preference. It is definitely worth looking at, but you really need to visit there before deciding since it is a totally different atmosphere than the other mentioned schools. I would imagine that it isn't that big of a party school compared to somewhere like CU-Boulder or UIUC or Purdue.

Notre Dame is another school that I would seriously visit before going. Personally, I wouldn't be caught dead being "one of the Irish" but that is just me. It is a respectable engineering school, though not on the level as a lot of the other ones mentioned, while being considerably more expensive being private.

cooptroop,

Two solid choices. I don't really know much about McGill in aerospace engineering, but I know they have very good engineering overall, and since mechanical is an option for you, it seems like that wouldn't matter much anyway.
