The first question you should ask yourself is where do you want to be after graduation? All of the schools you are looking at are very regional in nature. Therefore the companies that recruit there will all be local. Your network will be local and the school's reputation will be strongest locally. Given your background, I would focus on the northern California schools. I've heard good things about SCU.
