I would suggest Ga Tech. It is the #4 engineering school in the county and is well known for both academics and sports. The alumni network is superb. and Many graduate/law schools have sister programs for the students. If cost is an issue. May I suggest having your son attend a 2 year college here in Georgia called Georgia Perimeter. There, he can join the RETP program which ensures admission to tech after a series of classes are completed. This option may be cheaper, and he will not lose anytime. RETP graduates are usually further along in their program than students that begin at the same time at tech. But if he has a scholarship, then it may be just as well to go straight to tech. Bottom line, tech rocks!!!. The name speaks for itself in business and industry. and will prepare him for any future plans he may have. (hint hint, law school!!!)
