Short answer: UF would be the logical choice for financial reasons, as it is a top-25 school that you can go to for very reasonable cost. Major aerospace companies will not offer different salaries for any of these schools. You may want to consider GaTech and pay the extra expense if, for some reason, you think you may thrive there as opposed to UF or UMCP with it’s more engineering-centric focus…some do, but some don’t. So you really need to figure out where you think you’d be most happy and do your best.
