Date: February 4th, 2026 1:33 AM Author: poppy vigorous public bath hunting ground 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. |

Date: February 5th, 2026 8:08 PM Author: poppy vigorous public bath hunting ground All of these are very good, highly regarded schools. At this level the individual student characteristics will likely outweigh any institutional differences. However, I feel like Tech is just a hair better. YMMV.

UCLA has the most lay preftige. Admissions there have gotten insane, so congrats to him. |

IMHO, it is not worth paying sticker at an Ivy over flagship state for free/nearly free unless you are gunning for top-tier finance or consulting. Or unless your parents are so fucking loaded that $400k is nothing to them (which is true for a high percentage of students admitted to Ivy-tier schools).

Date: February 13th, 2026 5:33 PM Author: OldHLSDude Caveat: I only went to MIT. I do, however, know faculty and students from Stanford and Georgia Tech. I've worked pretty closely with Stanford faculty and students, though mostly grad students and post docs.
You probably won't be a better engineer or whatever for having gone to MIT/Stanford over Tech. They have higher lay prestige and probably better networking opportunities though. MIT/Stanford have lots of money, so you need to compare "sticker" costs net of financial aid, but Stanford/MIT are not worth incurring crippling debt vs. Tech, IMO.
Note that Stanford is considerably more of a real university than either Tech or MIT. STEM folks at Stanford are in a minority and probably work harder than the non-STEM students. They are a cultural island. MIT and Tech are more nerd central with a more widely shared common STEM culture.
MIT probably has a higher concentration of math genius types, and is more Asian demographically than either of the other two. Tech's student population is also more regional than the other two.
Stanford's location creates unique internship and networking opportunities.
Palo Alto is nice but pretty diffusely suburban (I used to live less than a mile from the Stanford campus). Tech is in urban Atlanta, for better or worse. Apologies to Doodicoff, but I am not an Atlanta fan. The Boston/Cambridge area is great except for the winters. MIT housing seems bleak. Don't know about the other two.
Stereotypically: Do you want to be a tech entrepreneur? Go to Stanford. Do you want to be a hard core engineer? Go to Tech. Do you want to be an academic/researcher? Go to MIT. Do you want to have lots of sex without much effort in college? Don't go to MIT. Do you want more of a "traditional" college experience? Go to Stanford, though Tech has real football.
I went to MIT because I was so ignorant I didn't know what I was doing. I hated it at first, but soon realized that resistance was futile and was after being absorbed by the Borg collective I enjoyed it and didn't want to leave. If not for the draft I might still be there. Of course everything has changed. I try to keep up, but you should listen more to younger people with recent direct experience. However, it doesn't look like you're getting a lot of responses, so I will be the blind man advising. |
