Hello,

I’m form Spain and i’ll be studying in the US during the next spring semester (hopefully). I have been given many options about where to study, and I have to choose my placement interests.
I am styudying Materials Engineering, so I’m looking for the best university in this area of interest, but, since I’m staying just for one term, I also want to enjoy the lifestyle, so good campus environment is also important!
I don’t have to pay for the tuition because I will be enrolled on an exchange program, so the only “worries” about the money are the room and board.

So, here they go:


University of Urbana Champaign
University of Georgia (@ Atlanta)
illinois institute of technology (@ chicago)
colorado school of mines (@ golden)
olin college of engineering (@ needham, MA)
rensselaer polythecnic institute (@ troy, NY)
university of connecticut (@ Storrs)


I plan to choose the best three, so HELP ME pLEASE!!

I think UIUC is the best of these, isn’t it? but i don’t know if I will be accepted there, my academic advisor told me it’s difficult.

Thanks in advance!
