Class of '07, Where Are You Applying?
 

Well the class of '06 did it. Now it's our turn.

So, Class of 2007...Where are you applying?

I'm applying at (in order of preference):
Clarkson University(Early Decision...if my parents let me)
Florida Institute of Technology
University of Central Florida
Rochester Institute of Technology
MIT (My mom is making me)

Major: Computer Engineering
Minor: Business

After that I'm going to get a degree in teaching, but I'll worry about that later :-D

Re: Class of '07, Where Are You Applying?
 

Cedarville Univ.
Univ. of Findlay
??? (various Ivy Leagues so I can say that I got accepted, if I do)
Not sure

I want to Major in Bio so I can get into vet school - I want to work with horses

Re: Class of '07, Where Are You Applying?
 

Clarkson University (No, not because Michelle wants to go there)
George Washington University (my brother ['94] and sister ['98] both went there...)
Purdue University
University of Central Florida (Yay for backups)
University of Illinois
University of Rochester
Washington University - St. Louis (where my brother is currently a law professor)

Re: Class of '07, Where Are You Applying?
 

My list is not for engineering, i plan on pursuing another science.

Hartwick College(probably early decision)
Elmira College
Union College
University of Rochester (because i got the Bausch & Lomb Award)

Re: Class of '07, Where Are You Applying?
 

Yay! my turn! I'm probably gonna study Mechanical Engineering, and maybe minor in accounting or some other business degree

Where I'm definetly Applying:
Drexel University
Catholic University of America
University of Dayton (happy Joe?)
Clarkson University
Rutgers (New Brunswick, and probably my safety)

Others I still have to consider heavily but have no clue where to put them:
Rochester Institute of Technology
Northeastern University
Worcester Polytechnic Institute
Manhattan College

Just a tid bit of advice for all you underclassmen out there, if you haven't yet, go to a few schools and request some info, don't go to the Ivy Leagues, look at some of the smaller schools, like many of those I've listed and many others have too.

And for historical purposes:
Class of 06
Class of 05
Class of 04
Class of 03
Class of 02

JMU(party for my first two years before transferring to VT)
MIT (lolol funnay)

Re: Class of '07, Where Are You Applying?
 

I am surprised on the amount of people applying for Rochester area.

Re: Class of '07, Where Are You Applying?
 

Good luck to the class of 07!

Just to note, if you know where you're going or think you know where you want to apply, great, but if you have no idea, don't feel like you're behind the curve, you just need more time. I have to say in August of my senior year I had no intention to go to Virginia Tech, where I am now, with the intention of studying electrical engineering.

Keep your options open. Even if you're not sure, don't put it off, but work extra hard to get information about schools that even spark your interest a little bit. Visit schools, visit schools, visit schools. No amount of promotional literature can give you the true atmosphere of the school, pay it a visit. Keep up with the deadlines, they'll be here faster than you think!

Keep those grades up, keep your options open, and good luck, you'll do fine!

Stanford University
Carnegie Mellon University
Deep Springs College (just kidding :ahh: )

(This is still a very early list that will probably change in the coming months.)

Re: Class of '07, Where Are You Applying?
 

Well, I've been waiting for this thread since I joined CD. And now that it's here...I don't know what to reply with! :ahh: I'll let you guys know when I have a more finalized list, though.

Re: Class of '07, Where Are You Applying?
 

(In order of my perogative)

Carnegie Mellon
Penn State (Double yay for backups)
RIT?

(The next two I'm applying for, but I'll have to finish the cold fusion flying car before I submit the application)

MIT
Franklin Olin College

Majoring in Mechanical Engineering, perhaps with a generous sprinkling of Computer Science to back up any hopes of a career in robotics.

Re: Class of '07, Where Are You Applying?
 

Good luck to all of you with college aps. Don't be afraid to ask for advice, to ask for people to proofread essays or even just give you a nudge in the right direction.

Remember, scholarships scholarships scholarships!!! Tuition is sky-high...you will probably need one or two.
