@chmcnm @NJdad07090 : Thank you for replying! I haven’t toured either thanks to recent events so I’m going blindly here.

Of any of you who have attended either or have a child who is, is Tech as academically challenging (to the point of insanity) as people say? That may be the deciding factor for me seeing as I’m definitely looking at Grad school and am not sure how much people would care about undergrad university “prestige.”

@neutralmouse01 GaTech is good, but it is definitely a pressure cooker.
If it is a problem, choose NEU. Life there will be more fun - less pressure, Boston. Your GPA at NEU will definitely be higher. If you are sure to go for grad school, you have solid options either way.
