Bit about me:
-Interested in engineering.
-Would like to have a versatile degree and want to either work in finance, tech, or a mixture of both.
I applied ED to Cornell's College of Engineering - I'm interested in their Operations Research and/or Information Science, Systems & Technology majors (anyone know anything about these?). However, I still have time to withdraw and possibly apply ED1 to Harvey Mudd, where I'm a recruit. At Mudd I'd do either Engineering or the CS/Math joint major. Cost is not a factor.
I like the different engineering options at Cornell, the option to transfer to a different college (Dyson, CALS, etc.) in case I don't like engineering and the wide alumni network (both in NYC and Silicon Valley -- how is Silicon Valley placement from Cornell?). On the other hand, Harvey Mudd is more guaranteed, better for engineering in Silicon Valley (?) and has nice weather, though doesn't offer as much flexibility / versatility in terms of working in finance and/or NYC. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush?
Would appreciate any advice, as I only have 1 day left to decide! Thanks.
