TU/e Automotive Technology vs. Clemson CU-ICAR Automotive Engineering

[rST]

Hi,

I have admits from the following programs (both unfunded).
Automotive Technology - TU/e
Automotive Engineering - Clemson University CU-ICAR

Prospective Student and Current applicants please share your opinion on both universities. I want to specialize in Vehicle Dynamics and Control. Univ ranking is not of much concern to me as long as the program is great and serves the purpose.

Clemson over TU/e
1. Cheaper.
2. CU-ICAR is awesome from what i have heard from everyone and also online reviews.
3. Very close industry tie-ups( i am yet to research on TU/e but CU-ICAR certainly has good tie-ups)

TU/e over Clemson
1. Europe, Close to Germany, NL, Europe(Again) 
2. Department is not separated from main campus. So very very good university life exposure. I want to experience that as well. I get a feeling that CU-ICAR will be like going to office everyday and getting Knowledge Transfers from managers for two years.
3. Close to Germany so good opportunities in vehicle dynamics and control.

Every1 please give your suggestions.
