echo, visiting a school is not going to answer your questions about quality. It will give you an idea of whether you like the campus and the atmosphere. For everything else, rely on your own research. There is a lot of information out there. Clearly, GT and Michigan are equal when it comes to Engineering. When it comes to Business, Michigan is much better than GT. Companies come from all over the country (and World) to recruit Ross students. The main questions you need to ask yourself are:


When you graduate (immediately, not 10 years down the line), do you want to go into Engineering or Corporate/Business? If the former, GT and Michigan are equal. If the latter, Michigan is a better choice.
Do you want a fun campus environment or does that not matter much to you? GT is not that bad, but it is not as fun and well rounded as Michigan.
GT is obviously going to be significantly cheaper. Is the cost difference worth the benefits mentioned above given your financial situation?


I hope you enjoy your visit, but remember to find things out on your own. Those visits are not going to give you accurate answers.
