Where do they prefer to go to college? The cheapest place that they can that still provides them with a level of education that they find acceptable.
What colleges attract or solicit FIRSTers? Obviously those with FIRST scholarships are a big turn-on to students (list of those can be found at the FIRST website) and those that are well known for their engineering programs are also good
Are there any colleges that use other ways? Not that I've heard of...
How many FIRSTers go to your school? To the best of my knowledge, 9 and we have 6 of them mentoring for us. The other 3 were on the list but seem to have disappeared off the face of the Earth. We're still looking for them...
(This is a very difficult question to answer when your school has 50,000 people at it...)
