Florida Institute of Technology

[Mike]

I was talking to my guidance counselor about colleges, and after I listed what I was looking at (Olin, Caltech, MIT, Cornell, CMU, RIT, WPI) she came up with a suggestion that kind of caught me off guard, Florida Tech.

She told me a story of an old student of hers who's father was a Dean at Yale. He scoffed at the thought of FIT, but after going to visit the campus he loved it. She says it has a project-based curriculum (similar to Olin) plus a large majority of students get internships at NASA.

Does anybody go to FIT and/or have any opinions on it? With its beautiful location and (from what she says) great education I think its definitely up there in my choice list.

EDIT: Major would be CS.
