For physics, and potential graduate pIacement, I would choose Stony Brook – it has the best faculty and placement; it probably has better facilities for physics than Rochester, but I have not been in the departments at Rochester, so not able to say conclusively. Rochester would still be a good choice as well, as would Brandeis; neither quite up to the level of SB. For physics, choose wisely: this is a difficult discipline, and the campus life, etc. will not matter as much as the academic path, if one wants to gain traction in the field.
Unless the co-op structure takes precedence, I wouldn’t place Northeastern as highly for physics – and I’m not entirely clear how a co-op structure would benefit natural or theoretical sciences as well as applied sciences or engineering students, to be quite honest.
