I agree with others, I think these are generally peer colleges. If you look at NCES College navigator, and primary majors in Poli Sci or IR (what I think of as the core social sciences for people interested in government), it is 161/4498 at Northeastern (about 3.6%), 53/1266 at Lehigh (about 4.2%), which is functionally identical.

So assuming cost is not a factor, it is all about where you think you will be happiest and thrive both academically and non-academically. That is a very personal decision, and while if you have specific questions we can possibly help provide you with information, in the end it is really just up to you. But you are not going to make a bad decision here.
