The attrition is higher at many state schools because their job is to educate the students of their state. That means admitting students in who might not be ready for the rigors of engineering. The fact that your son got into Tufts is an indication that he probably has the horsepower and drive to get through any of them. None will be easy.

As for wanting the best for him, letting him decide what feels best, is what’s best. Need some reassurance that we all probably fret this more than we need to? Read this http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/engineering-majors/1960412-is-choosing-a-tippy-top-engineering-school-of-vital-importance.html
