AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on choosing between the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor) and Georgia Tech (Atlanta) for an Electrical Engineering (EE) program. Both institutions are highly regarded, prompting inquiries about financial aid packages and residency qualifications. Weather conditions are noted as a downside for both, with Georgia Tech experiencing high heat and the University of Michigan having long, cloudy winters. Atlanta is characterized as a larger, vibrant city, while Ann Arbor offers a smaller, more intimate community feel. Concerns about out-of-state tuition are raised, with a preference expressed for Georgia Tech due to its reputation as a top engineering school and the perception that its EE program is particularly challenging.

Ok I have been accepted by university of michigan (ann arbor) as well as george tech(atlanta)
for EE. Any advise to choose one from the other is welcome. Thanks.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Both are reputable institutions... so what do their financial aid packages look like? Do you qualify for residency in either state?

I personally think the weather is crappy at both places, though for different reasons (GT is too darn hot but U of M is clouded over for months in the winter). Atlanta is a bigger city, GT is in the middle of it all (I worked there during the summer of the olympics... so it was lots of fun!), but Ann Arbor is fairly nice too -- a bit smaller and therefore feeling more small townish... though certainly not without things to do.

I am concerned out of state for both.
 
id go to GT.

Top 5 Engineering school i think
 
I heard that at GT, EE is the hardest thing that you can do. In fact, it was a post in pf. So you might want to choose GT.
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation.
