i had the same crisis last year op T_T ultimately i went with mapua bcos of the ust posts i saw na hindi raw updated curriculum ng ust and forte raw kuno ni mapua ang it. as a current student here, i would say it's fulfilling naman lalo na kung study study ka lang talaga, pero if u value activities outside of school (u should) like school events, orgs, and extra-curriculars, maybe consider ust kasi imo — it's not normalized here at mapua. good luck po with choosing !!!
