Class of 2017, where are you applying?
 

So I've made threads like these in the past and they seem to go over well. Current seniors feel free to post where you're applying to college (or if your plan isn't college feel free to post whatever you are doing). Alumni and mentors can feel free to talk up their schools and offer advice, and students are encouraged to ask questions since this is the time to start applying!

If anyone has questions about Clarkson University, I'm currently a sophomore in the MechE department (there are also tons of other robotics alumni that have gone through the school that I can point you towards).

Re: Class of 2017, where are you applying?
 

I'm currently a sophomore at Purdue majoring in Mechanical Engineering. We have a strong community of FIRST alumni built around Purdue FIRST Programs(PFP), an organization that supports all levels of local FIRST programs through mentorship and hosting events. If anybody has any questions about Purdue or PFP just ask, I can answer questions or direct you to somebody whose experiences more align with your goals.

Sam, I noticed that you mentioned Mechanical Engineering Technology. What interested you about that program? Many incoming students are often confused about the difference between the school of technology and the school of engineering.

Re: Class of 2017, where are you applying?
 

Technology attracts me more as I would prefer a more hands on approach to learning. I am also not the strongest math student in the world pushing me towards the easier math classes.

Re: Class of 2017, where are you applying?
 

University of Michigan
Lawrence Technological University
Michigan Technological University
Kettering University
Grand Valley State University

For either Biomedical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering.

Re: Class of 2017, where are you applying?
 

Purdue University
Worcester Polytechnic Institute

Both for Biomedical Engineering

Re: Class of 2017, where are you applying?
 

Colorado State University
University of Colorado Boulder
Colorado school of mines
South Dakota school of mines
University of Virginia

All for mechanical engineering.

Re: Class of 2017, where are you applying?
 

I'm currently a Freshman at University of Wisconsin- Madison studying Electrical Engineering. (with a possible double major in Computer Science, but I'm not sure yet)

UW- Madison is a very all-rounded school which is not only is known for their top 15 ranked engineering department in the nation, but is also known for their business, sciences, liberal arts, and nursing departments. Lot's of major companies from Milwaukee, Chicago, Minneapolis, and across the nation come looking for students for internships, co-ops, and entry level jobs at UW-Madison. If you are interested in the Electrical/Computer Engineering department, UW-Madison provides a unique plan where you can double major with Computer Science along with those degrees with no additional classes required. (They'll just replace your professional breadth electives with CS classes)

So far UW- Madison does not have a FIRST alumni community, but I'm working towards making a FIRST alumni community by connecting with fellow FIRST alumni across campus.

If anybody has any questions about UW- Madison, please feel free to PM me! I'm happy to answer any questions.
