Cost is a huge issue for students. My kids have friends deep in debt, and it is not pretty. What Michigan Tech does well is it offers programs where engineering students can take terms off to work as paid interns. You might want to check into that.

My daughter ended up not attending Michigan Tech because she was not sure we wanted to be in engineering. She is in grad school now, not in engineering, but her goal is to be a professor at Michigan Tech. The school definitely has students who just love it. One of her grade school classmates did end up going to Michigan Tech and graduated debt free because he took advantage of paid internships. He did not graduate in four years, but he did graduate debt free.
