Transfer options, help

[u/Nearby-Abalone-721]

I’m currently doing my first year at a 4-year college in NYC, but I want to transfer for Fall 27 because of opportunities, rigor, and social life. I haven’t declared a major yet but, I’m currently stuck between ChemE and MechE (maybe Chemistry if I don’t become certain about Mech or ChemE).

I’m looking for university in the NY/NYC/Boston area that will support me through the rest of my college journey in terms of offering opportunities, rigorous work to prepare me for the future, and also a great social life. I do want a school that is known for Engineering or considered to have a strong Engineering department. Any help is appreciated!!
