While all schools you mentioned are top notch, why stay in the cold North East?
The West Coast has great weather, schools and scenery. Stanford, UCLA, USC, Berkely, U./Washington, U./Arizona... basically any Pac-Ten school will give you a great college experience and prepare you for post-college life (i.e. grad-school, law, medicine etc.). Not taking away from the other regions/schools, but many of my clients and co-workers who visit or have moved out here remark on how nice it would've been to go to a West Coast school.
U./Michigan, Northwestern, U./Wisconsin or other Big-Ten schools are worth checking out too. Visited Chapel Hill, North Carolina and was very impressed - not a bad basketball team either.
What is your intended major and career interest? Some schools are gear ed more for business while others specialize in the sciences or technologies. It is a good idea to have the college you attend have a strong program/reputation in the field you wish to pursue. UMass Lowell, for example, is perhaps the top school for plastics engineering. Graduates from their plastics program are highly recruited and well compensated.
Good Luck,
Nick
