Help me to choose an Aeronautical Engineering School Please!

Hello everyone!

I am currently on my final year in high school and I am trying to choose between colleges which accepted me to study aeronautical engineering.
I will be glad if you can advise me. My choices are Imperial College London in UK; UCLA, Georgia Tech, Purdue, Illinois at Urbana, UC Davis( with scholarship), UC San Diego and University of Virginia.

I really need opinions on this subject! Thank you!

Having no knowledge about the UK school, I would heavily lean towards the University of Illinois or Purdue; both are exceptional engineering schools. Georgia Tech is even above both of schools, though. It seems that you have a lot of options - are finances a problem? Does geographical location matter?

I'd go to Davis if that is the only place you have a scholarship.

Everybody says that Atlanta is a boring city even if academics is the most important factor for me location is crucial too.

What about UCLA?
