<p>Obviously, RPI is better than NYU-Poly. However, I would not say “much” better because it all depends on what you want and what your plans are. RPI is nationally recognized, true. On the other hand, tons of kids graduate from NYU-Poly and go on to work in great firms too. Again, it all depends on what you want. If your dream is to work in NYC, then NYU-Poly might be a relatively better choice. It has a great reputation in the city.</p>
