Georgia Tech would be my pick if he's a serious engineering student (assume this is undergrad). Reputationally Georgia Tech and Illinois are pretty close, and great at that. UT and UCLA are also very close to each other and considered slightly less prestigious than the other two.
Which location/campus he likes best and cost are factors, of course. Illinois is in the middle of a corn field, Tech is in the middle of Atlanta, UT is in a great college town and UCLA is the LA experience.
Georgia Tech is unusually entrepreneurial. Overall I think it has has the strongest reputation of the four. It's also smaller and more focused on engineering across the university than any of the others. Another + for Tech is that Georgia has been a steadfast and consistent investor in STEM college education and lacks some of the budget problems of Illinois and California.
I've heard from people who work at UCLA that it can, like all the UC schools, be painfully bureaucratic. I have had some personal dealings with Georgia Tech folks and had friends on the faculty there. They act more like a private university than a public. That's a good thing.
There are no bad choices here, but IMO Tech stands out for the above reasons.

Georgia Tech and UIUC have the best engineering reputations among those. Can’t go wrong. I’d prefer UIUC for B1G collge town experience. Will be as fun as engineering school could be.
UCLA has the most lay preftige. Admissions there have gotten insane, so congrats to him.

if he's a true nerd. tech. otherwise whichever of the other 3 are in-state. they're all good enough so he should either be indexing for cost.
if he's a jock/engineer then texas

How much better is MIT/ Stanford than Georgia Tech? Worth it to pay full sticker for MIT/ Stanford over Georgia Tech?
