There have been many threads going around recently in regards to where FIRST kids go to college, what most people study, or what people use for their transitional year. However, the issue I'm dealing with right now is prioritizing colleges before I start applying in the fall.
Here are a few questions I was wondering about...
Did the availability of FIRST competitions or mentorship on a team highly affect your college choices?
Was the prospect of combining build season and classes a challenge for anyone?
Did you specifically search out colleges with a prominent FIRST program, or did you choose to take a less-walked route and start a new team?
Most importantly,
How do you feel about that decision?
I couldn't find specifics on this question, but myself and a few friends discussed it amongst ourselves today at the 461 open house. Thanks
