Go for Rose-Hulman, it may be less expensive now but the way the California economy is going, UCLA may catch up. I have a friend in the honors program at UCLA for econ and he had hard time even getting into the intro econ class last year because there were too many people vying for a spot (something that being in the honors program is 'supposed' to help with).
UCLA may be more well known all around, but if you want to study any discipline of engineering, Rose-Hulman is the way to go. And in fact, RHIT probably has a better reputation when it comes to engineering anyways.
