Are you applying in state for either school?
From a financial standpoint I would suggest going with the in state tuition if available…cause you’ll be spending a fortune on Med school.

Another thing to look at would be the degree requirements/curriculum. Both programs are probably very rigid and may require 41/2-5 years in school. I’m a little interesting in why you want to apply for EE when you’re applying to med school though…most pre-med students I know are either majoring in Bio or Biomed Engineering.

The EE curriculum can be found here
[UT ECE | 2004-2006 Electrical Engineering Curriculum](http://www.ece.utexas.edu/undergrad/ee04-06.html)

If you want to look, the Biomed is here
[Curriculum Overview - Undergraduate Program - Academics - Department of Biomedical Engineering - University of Texas at Austin](Custom 404 page)

If school atmosphere and feel is important, then by all means take those into consideration. Are you a basketball person? (UCLA) Or a football person? (UT) Are you into a crowded entertainment capital (LA) or a crowded music capital (Austin)? Just a few more things to consider.
