I have done campus tours and school of engineering tours at UW Madison, University of Minnesota, Purdue, University of Michigan, and Northwestern University. I could see myself loving any of these schools

They are almost all public Us and you would pay OOS rates for most of them. Can your family afford that?

Most of the schools that give full rides or full tuition are not ranked in engineering, but I know that rankings do not necessarily indicate the value of the program.

ABET accreditation is what matters in engineering. http://main.abet.org/aps/accreditedprogramsearch.aspx

One of the better Chem E programs that isn’t even on your list is U Delaware which is supported by DuPont.
