Class of '07, Where Are You Applying?

[AndyB]

Milwaukee School of Engineering
University of Wisconsin - Platteville

I am definitly leaning towards the first one.

[Daniel Morse]

This process can be a stressful one, but if you dont rush to finish everything at once, you should be fine. I would suggest that you consider looking for non binding early action programs at the schools that you really become interested in. If you get into a school you want early, that can save you the headache of applying to many more schools to try and guarantee an acceptance. I applied early to both WPI and RPI, and got into both before Christmas. I had my aid package back from WPI before the deadline for my financial safety school (UNH), so I didn't even have to apply. It was short and simple, and saved me the nightmare of filling out many long applications. As my sig indicates...I chose RPI.

As a student at Rensselaer (RPI), I feel that I should put in a good word for the Institute, since it seems to be notably absent from many application lists on this thread. Rensselaer is a top notch engineering school (we just made the "New Ivy" list), and we do have a FIRST program here, for all those who wish to continue on in FIRST through mentoring. I highly encourage you to consider Rensselaer in your search for colleges. If anyone has any questions about RPI, I'd be glad to answer them to the best of my ability (I have just started as a freshman, so I am still learning a lot about the Institute).

Best of luck to the class of 2007!

Top 4:
Emory University - I have been in love with it since i was in 5th grade, and my mom is an employee so a free tution doesnt hurt either
Georgia Tech- one of the best engineering schools right next to home/is home for 6 weeks
Stevens Institute- Amazing program
University of Alabama at Birmingham- I was accepted, but my eye is on their Early Medical School Acceptance Program

Other:
CMU
Duke
Johns Hopkins
Dartmouth

[PandaMan]

Top Choices:

1. CalTech
2. CMU
3. UMich
4. GTech

Then (No perticular order):

5. U Illinois (UC)
6. U Cal Berkeley
7. UCLA
8. NYU
9. Rutgers
10. BU
11. Cornell?

[Kyle Love]

Well folks, I just got accepted at Purdue today, so that's where I will be!

[Jay Trzaskos]

For me, in order...

Northeastern University (early action)
University at Buffalo (early action)
University of Rochester
Penn State
Clarkson UNiversity --> i guess you could call this my safety school
University of New Hampshire
Rochester Institute of Technology

[GRaduns340]

I'm glad to hear from someone who suggests RPI. They're currently my top choice. The list is (in some sort of selection order):

RPI (early app)
RIT (possible advantage of tuition exchange through my dad's job at Roberts Wesleyan)
Washington U. - St. Louis
LeTourneau University (another possibly free school)
Roberts Wesleyan College (this one's guaranteed free, but I'm only applying because of the parental mandate)

Major: Computer Science - Engineering

Unfortunately, the fact that I could get free tuition at 3 of those on the list hurts my chances of convincing my parents about RPI or Washington. I'm taking a couple courses at Roberts this year and over the summer to get some of the humanities stuff out of the way to try to get a full year out of the way before actually starting my first year, especially if I'll be paying for it.

[Adam Richards]

Hmm.. since I can't edit my old post, here's my list, in preferential order:

Clarkson University (I am going to be afraid of what this FIRST team will do in two years...)
Washington University - St. Louis (brother is a law professor there)
Purdue University - West Lafayette
George Washington University (brother and sister are alumni)
University of Illinois - Urbana-Champagne
University of Rochester (President is my brother's former dean and a good friend of his)
UCF (backup)

[Michelle Celio]

I just started filling out my RIT Application, included is a section for "Electronic Addresses" including "E-mail Address" and "AOL IM Screen Name".

I'm glad I've currently updated my Screen Name to be more professional (from Gangstersrscary to my name...).

[Alex Pelan]

Well, here it goes, order of preference?

Stanford University
Northwestern University
University of Notre Dame (EA)
Boston College (EA)
NYU
University of Rochester
Purdue
UConn (pretty much necessary for those of us in CT)

[Ricky2443]

Just one baby...MIT

hmm if I don't get in I think I'm in trouble

[Ricky2443]

on second thought, college is for softies

[laurenlacy]

University of Chicago
Northwestern
Johns Hopkins
Bates
Purdue
UW Madison
Lafayette
Union College NY
Colgate
St. Olaf

random, I know... but I'm in love with them all!

[Jonathan Norris]

University of Queen's
University of Waterloo
.
.
.
University of Toronto
University of Calgary
(all Canadian Universities)
I am really deciding between Queen's and Waterloo at the moment, looking at Mechanical/Mechatronics Engineering for both.

[Erin Rapacki]

RICE University
University of Houston
Northeastern University


Ok... you caught me, Grad School!
(I want that Mechanical Engineering degree afterall. Industrial Engineering isn't bad, but it took me my undergraduate college career to discover how much I enjoy delving into mechanical design. Research interest is robotics and human-robot-interaction. Looking to go all the way with a PhD )
