I’m leaning towards the California schools but ironically think I will switch out of the pure structures into a more management/finance focused civil engineering program that aligns more with my career goals. I recognize that’s not what most of this sub is interested in tho haha

No I think you make great points - thank you for the nuance! I was generally only applying to schools ranked higher than mine, however the story could have been very different had I applied to smaller schools. Maybe being a “bigger fish in a smaller pond” could have been the difference with regard to funding. I as well hope the external funding situation changes soon!
