VT is definitely not urban or med-large, it is just plain big. ?
I give another vote for Ga Tech. It should be a lower reach for you., it is medium sized, urban, one of the best ME programs in the country, and will likely transfer in most of your credits. How important is it to you keep your college credits? Many of the private schools will not give or be much harder to get the transfer credits. Also go ahead and apply to MIT, as you have a better chance than many.
