<p>i’m looking for a mid-sized college (i’m thinking roughly between 8,000-18,000) with a strong engineering program. preferably a university instead of a tech school, i’m really put off by the guy:girl ratio at some of those. what schools would you recommend to me?</p>

<p>Depending on your stats… Northwestern and Cornell. Both are really competitive, but they both have great programs.</p>

<p>in a ‘chances’ thread i made, people were split between saying cornell was either a match or a reach; just to give you an idea of where i am
2080 SAT I; 2150 SAT II, very rigorous schedule, top 5% out of 275, [i think] very good EC’s, etc.</p>

<p>CMU (reachy) male/female ~55/45
BU (matchy) male/female ~40/60</p>

<p>both universities</p>

<p>Perhaps Lehigh.</p>

6

<p>Northeastern University</p>

<p>thanks for the recommendations guys. any more?</p>

<p>Best mid-sized, non-tech engineering university is undoubtedly Stanford. I don’t think that’s a close call. </p>

<p>Of course, getting admitted is no walk in the park.</p>

<p>Villanova is a little smaller than 8,000, but pretty close. Maybe, 7200 undergrad now. They have a pretty good engineering school. :)</p>

<p>Vanderbilt</p>
