Chance my daughter for engineering (TX resident - 4.0 UWGPA, 1580 SAT, 1520 PSAT, 36 ACT) [<$60k]

I also agree that this is an already long list and that your daughter doesn’t need any more schools to add. She’s a very strong student and already has some great acceptances! TAMU has a fabulous MSE program so hopefully the pressure is off!

The only other reach school I’d consider would be Cornell. They have a very strong program in MSE. (And if your daughter is starting to hit her max with applications, I’d apply to Cornell over U Penn).

Side note:
For your daughter’s intended major TAMU has a stronger program than UT . My D’s valedictorian picked TAMU from out of state for undergrad and is now getting a fully funded PhD now at one of your d’s reach schools.

If you or your daughter have any questions about combining chem e with mse, or career outcomes, please reach out. My daughter was a chem e with an mse concentration at Purdue and works in the materials industry.
