Hello everyone, I’m having a bit of a hard time deciding which school I should attend for undergraduate study. I’m looking at majoring in aerospace/aeronautical engineering and perhaps double-majoring or minoring in journalism.

Earlier in my high school years, and even in middle school, I was really gung-ho about UM because this was the first institution that I saw that really catered to the things I wanted. But now, I’ve matured a little and I’m considering other factors like where I’ll get a job after school, where I’ll go to graduate school and such like.

Financial aid is a pretty significant factor, and UM and UF have given me some pretty reputable aid. UCF, I’m not so sure about yet, but I have heard that they have a very good aerospace engineering program, and they have proved themselves to be very supportive of those pursuing STEM majors. It seems that support is pretty good at UM and UF, but I’m just not sure on which I should place a final decision!

I’d really like to know which is the best school for engineering out of these three. ANY advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you all in advance!
