“it looks like UChicago is almost as good as Stanford and Yale”

For engineering or computer science I would lean towards Stanford. The same is true for operations research, which is a little known sub-field of math that I happened to major in. For almost anything else I would consider them equal in quality. I would also consider them all to be superb for a very, very wide range of majors.

One of my daughter’s very good friends (an exceptional student) went to Chicago. It is academically very demanding, but so are Stanford and Yale.

If I could do it without debt I would probably come up with the money for any of these schools. If I had to take on debt, I would go with the least expensive of these three superb schools.
