Looking for Engineering Safety Schools?

I think you have a good shot at RHIT, Mines, RPI and Missouri S&T if you do well on your SATs. My older D considered all of these. She ended up at RHIT with a merit scholarship (partial) - yes, it’s nerdy and about 75% male, but she loves the collaborative environment, professor accessibility, etc. She also wanted a small school. It’s a great fit for her.

My younger D is also on an engineering merit scholarship, but at a polar opposite school - U Michigan. She wanted a larger, more diverse school and the ability to double degree in music. UM is a great fit for her. (FYI, UM is becoming questionable as a safety for anyone OOS.)

Neither of my D’s would be happy if they switched schools. I think it’s good to think through factors like size, location and learning environment - as well as things like job placement rate and making sure you have some safeties.
