Help! Son choosing between WPI and RIT for Early Decision School

up until spring of freshman year when Covid hit. That spring he was finding his footing, was doing clubs, etc. Then March came. He managed with AP credits to graduate in 3 years. Year 2 he had a few hybrid classes so he went to NY , but their rules (not RIT but NY) about quarantine before arrival were awful, and there was very little social interaction. His last year, which was his Junior ad Senior year in one, by the Spring of 2022 he was getting his footing again and had a good roommate. So the answer is that he would have, if Covid did not happen.

Classwise he seemed to enjoy most of his classes. His last year he really had a great rapport with one professor in particular.

Note that my son is also ASD, and RIT is known for the Spectrum Support program.
