University of Texas is much larger than either Cornell or UVa. Cornell and UVa have a fairly similar number of undergrads(13,935 to 14, 896). UVa is public but has somewhat of a private school vibe.
Texas has 38, 463 undergrads. Texas is over 90 percent instate kids, UVa is about 70 percent instate and has students from many other states and countries. Even Cornell shows as 35 percent NY residents and attracts many kids from neighboring states. The OP would have plenty of opportunity to meet kids from all over at mist schools.The OP clearly prefers Cornell so I hope that works out. I do think $60,000 sounds like too much debt, even for a tech person, and I hope that number can be brought down .
