LSA accepts a significantly lower percentage of applicants (under 50% vs over 60% last I checked), but Engineering has a higher calibre of applicant and expects better scores, tougher high school curriculae and higher GPAs.

For those undecided between Engineering and LSA, I recommend applying to Engineering, assuming you have the credentials, primarily because transfering from Engineering to LSA is automatic whereas transfering from LSA to Engineering can be tough.
