Hey Juniors (Soon to be Seniors...) Where Are You Looking At For College?

[Melissa Fitta]

I only want to go to the University of Maine in Orono. It is a beautiful school and another big plus is my boyfriend decided to go there as well. I want to major in Psychology or Social Work with a minor in music. Anyone should take a look at the school it is good sized about 11,000 students and has a great campus although it is in the middle of no where. Doesn't have a Robotics team yet though.

I'm considering the University of Michigan and Purdue...both have FIRST scholarships, and both have programs in aerospace engineering. I'm not sure what I want to do, but I'm currently leaning towards aerospace.

Then again, it depends on what I'm offered. I'm the kind of guy who should have no problem getting accepted - 35 on the ACT, a perfect 4.0 GPA (so far), a very demanding extracurricular in FIRST...

In the end, though, it'll probably come down to money. If I can get a full ride to a school with a program I like, I'll definitely take it.

I've been thinking, and I guess this a good place to ask.

Of people you know, what did it take to get into the college of their choice? What did they find the best thing to have on their side?

I'm hoping to go into either biomedical engineering, or something related to the world of genetics and immunology. Anyone have any reccomendations of good colleges that would be a fit?

I have been thinking of the U.S Naval Academy for its engineering. If not that then probably UCLA.

My dream is MIT or IIT (India Institute of Technology). But realistically, University of Waterloo or McMaster University (both in Ontario) for engineering.
