U of R is more selective, prestigious and expensive. one of the best thing about the university is the campus and it is a mid-size school, where everyone is super friendly. If you are considering BME, ME or optics then it is a great school. But unlike many other schools, you are not admitted to the school of eng. You will be admitted to the university and you set your curriculum as per your interest and declare your major, lot more flexibility.

RIT is easier to get in, it is a technical school, great for CS and industrial eng. The campus is large and uninspiring, completely removed from the rest of the small town where it is located ( reason why they let freshman bring their cars!)

RPI is more comparable to UofR than RIT they both are very different schools.
