"Right Fit" is more important for YOU than class stats
While rivals - we are so because of how much we have in common vs how different we are.
Yes, we rib each other.
But some of my best friends at OCS/Basic were from Citadel and A&M - we had walked such a similar path.
Now I suspect VPI is in that equation with their revitalized Corps
(my entire family was VPI before me. My father was 1st KIA in Vietnam from VPI and Virginia as a whole)
Back to your question: as Bruno says - get your tail in gear and go visit each school and pay attention to what truly matters.
My suggestion of criteria are:
- ask current 4th classmen at each school about their experience.
- then poll 1st class, alumni, professors - each about their perspectives of each school.
This is ALL about fitting in with the school you feel best fits you based on the people you meet, your desired majors, needs, athletics, etc.
Either of the schools will advance your career - be it in the Military or Civ-Div.
Your future will be based on what you do, not where you graduate.
