Should I go to a T20 or take a fullride at my state school?

I am trying to decide if I should go to a T20 or take a full ride at a state school.

Context: I want to major in electrical engineering.

The Full Ride is NOT at my state flagship. It is at a different state school.The state school has a relatively new engineering program(Under 7 years old) so there won’t be many established industry connections. The State school is not particulary high ranked . I do not think its has ever been ranked above 200.

The T20 is well….. A T20. My financial aid reduced my direct cost to 8000 including work-study.) I already have 2000 dollars in external scholarships and I applied for a lot more.

I might be able to avoid taking out loans and pay the rest, but I could get an interest free loan. Ideally, I get more external scholarships.

What school do you think I should attend?
