PLEASE don't pick a school because it's close, or because it's get good engineering, or because your friends are going there. Pick a school that you have visited, and that when you are there and after you leave you feel a connection to that school, almost as if it is pulling you in. If you don't know what I mean, or if I am exaggerating a little sorry. But when you find the right school you will know it, and you will not want to accept anything less. A school with a reputation is good, but even if no one has ever heard of your school, doesn't mean you didn't get a great education. Believe me, employers know all the good schools, and all the schools that have great programs.

I picked a small school because it tailored to my needs for attention on a personal level, and I felt like I belonged when I was there. Find a school that Taylors to your needs, and go there, and don't let people tell you that it was a bad choice, ever.

Very true. Here's a related story...

One of my sisters was touring Babson, and the tour was miserable because it was pouring rain. But, she left the campus feeling really good about the school and how well it fit her. So, when she was making her deposit, she thought back to that tour and decided that if she could love a school in the pouring rain then she'd love it even more the rest of the time.

I plan on doing immediate decision for Ramapo College. if they dont accept me, i do have some backups in mind, but i'm just really hoping i get accepted, because Ramapo is really exactly what i want for college, and their communications major is everything i want and nothing i dont. :D

I've added California Polytechnic Institute -San Luis Obispo to my list of colleges. It's #1 in architecture, and not bad in engineering either. A plus is that many of my friends are applying there (but it certainly isn't the reason I'm applying) and a pro/con is that it is close to home, I'd really prefer to get out of California for college.

I also just got a letter from Tulane University in St. Louis, who is offering to wave my application fee and essay and they'll give me notice in 4 weeks from when they get my application, so it could turn out to be a quick safety.

I added University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, to my list.

Two applications down, three to go, oh the horrors..

What about UVA? ;)

Oh come on, I've been in the whole VT vs. UVA thing and I think it's stupid. I'd hardly call VT the best school in VA.

Oh well, that's just a continuous pet peeve of mine, sorry for the tangent there.

Stony Brook is a really bad choice if you are thinking of getting a degree in engineering. They throw you in giant lecture halls your first year and really aren't very supportive. Now if you like that sort of thing go right ahead. There is one degree though that it's recommeneded that you go to Stony Brook. I think it's teaching.
