Which university is better for Electrical/Computer Engineering? UCF, USF, FSU?

I've already gotten my acceptance letters from UCF and USF. I expect to get my FSU letter in March. So now I'm in a bit of a dilemma between the three schools about their engineering programs. I want to base my decision more on the individual program than the school's overall rating.

I've heard some good things about UCF's engineering college, but not much from the other two so I don't know which I should attend. UCF has a nice campus, but the whole modern, commuter feeling of it is not really my taste and it has the largest student body in state which I'm not to happy about either. I love FSU's more traditional campus, but their engineering college doesn't have that great of a reputation (or at least I haven't heard much of it.) I've heard almost nothing of USF.

If any of you have attended one of these schools and/or knows enough about their engineering programs to help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it!

Things to concider:

Class sizes

Facilities

Professors

Scholarships

Jobs, research opportunities, internships

Not too concerned about:

Parties

Sororities/Fraternities

Sports

Tuition cost

(P.S. I know many people consider UF to be the best engineering school in Florida and if I do get accepted, since it's a reach school for me and my #1, it'll be the school I attend hands down.)

    You are right about UF, their engineering program is hands down best in the state. Id knock off USF right away. UCF is a big campus and has a commuter feel as well as being in a bigger city. FSU has more of the college feel with athletics and a college town atmosphere. If instate is your only option I would first look to UF, from there all other engineering programs are grouped as second rate and it really depends on your personal preference for one campus/experience over the other. Good luck on UF.
