| I haven't studied at ISU, but I have worked with their Department of Ag and Biosystems Engineering quite a bit for my M.Sc (I did my undergrad studies at McGill University, and I am in the process of finishing my M.Sc. also at McGill, in Canada). From my perspective, ISU is the best possible school for ag engineering. They have very complete facilites, a very well equiped research farm and extremely competent profs. They are also extremely well connected with the industry (Deere, Agco, etc.) so that's pretty much a guaranteed job after graduation. Looking back at the last 6 years, I wish I had applied at ISU for undergrad and for grad studies. However as you say tuition is scary! The cost of tuition at ISU is would be a tenfold increase over what I pay here at McGill. As far as SDSU and UWRF, I don't really know anything about them.
If tuition is really a problem, but want good ag engineering, I would recommend that you look at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg and the University of Saskachewan in Saskatoon. Tuition at these two school is in the 12-15k range (about the same as studying out of state in the US), but they have really good engineering programs (especially USask).
Let me know if you have other questions.
