pk1jk1: Have you applied to schools with rolling admissions so you have acceptances in your pocket? It is a little worrisome that you were rejected and not deferred in the Penn ED round. Your numbers are competitive (GPA is a little low for top schools). You really need to have safeties you love.

For urban, engineering and research:

Ga Tech
Pitt
Case Western
Ohio State
Northeastern
U Miami (suburban)
U Minnesota
Maryland (suburban)
Delaware (small city but close to Philadelphia and Baltimore)

Not urban: Penn State, Alabama, Florida
