I am highly considering Engineering and I am an in state kid who also chose U of A over ASU. Mainly because I prefer the school a lot more (being away from a stalking family, great campus, etc.), even outside of Engineering. I have had plenty of bad experiences at ASU but that’s probably just me. If we are going to listen to the rankings, U of A is slightly behind, but the college is a lot smaller in contrast to ASU which I think is a plus. Some of their programs are better than ASU, like Mining Engineering and “biosystems” (environmental). Not too sure about the other engineering programs. But for the most part they are very similar.

If money is important, pick ASU. They offered me triple the financial aid than U of A.
