Delaware is more selective:
UD: 47% of applicants accepted
Syracuse: 51% of applicants accepted

Syracuse is better academically ranked by U.S News and World Report:
Syracuse: 50
UD: 71

Nevertheless, they are both very similar schools. You will not be hired when applying for a job solely on the fact that you went to one school or the other.

It would probably be wisest to go where its cheaper, or where D’s heart desires and not worry about the academic reputation, as they both have stellar ones.
