I got accepted into both schools, but haven’t made my mind I most probably want to study some sort of engineering (systems, production or maybe something else) but I got accepted undecided to penn and into international studies at wpi (counselor recommended it), I wonder how hard it would be to switch majors at wpi

wpi pros: excellent engineering school, near boston (one of my favorite cities)
cons: only 30% women so it would be a wiener fest, tuition is about 15k more than penn per year

Penn pros: WAY cheaper, The undecided program would help me find exactly what im looking for, plus no switching majors, around 8 friends got accepted and being from Venezuela the company would be great away from home
cons: its in the middle of nowhere, might get distracted since it’s a party school, engineering program probably not as strong as wpi

Please help and thanks beforehand
