Class of 2008 !

[Nica F.]

I was working on my Purdue application, and wondered where the rest of the class of 2008 FIRSTers are applying.

So class of 2008, where are you applying, & what do you want to major in?

[Branden Ghena]

I've applied to the University of Michigan, Michigan Tech, and Kettering.
Because of my time in robotics, I want to major in Engineering, probably electrical or computer to be specific.

[Tapoore]

I'm applying at:

Cedarville University, OH (first choice)
Worcester Polytechnic
Le Tourneau University, TX

Most likely major: Mechanical Engineering

[njamietech]

Im applying to Baylor University in Waco, Texas To start pre-medical

Then i will apply to BCU (Baylor college of medicine [Not in any way related to Baylor Univeristy])

Then i will do my residency followed by specialization

hopefully this all leads to becoming a Cardiologist or a Cardiac Surgeon.

If applying to Baylor does not work out then i will accept an invatation to an honors colledge in Louisiana.

[Hiteak]

I'm applying to:

RIT for Computer Science (early decision)
WPI for Robotics

[=Martin=Taylor=]

I'm applying to:

-UC Berkley
-Cal Poly (San Luis Obisbo)
-UC Davis

I'm probably going to major in Mechanical Engineering, Industrial Design, or something else engineering related. It depends on which universtiy I go to.

So many people from my team go to Davis that if I went there we'd probably have to move the whole team But seriously, we're acumulating quite a cheering section...

[JackN]

I am applying to
Michigan State University (Early Decision)
Central Michigan University
Aquinas
Specs Howard School of Broadcast Arts

My major is probably Broadcast Journalism with a minor in either teaching or Literature.

[KTorak]

Major:
Civil Engineering (Emphasis on Transportation type stuff).

Applied to:
Michigan Tech.
Michigan State
University of Michigan
Tri-State University
University of Toledo
(all are early decision schools so i'll know by December the latest).

Accepted to:
Still awaiting replies.

[Dan Petrovic]

I'm looking at applying to several places.

Purdue
Drexel
UNH
UConn
RPI
WPI
MIT (doubt I'll get in, though... one can hope!)

I'll either major in Mechanical Engineering or Electrical Engineering.

[Arefin Bari]

Good luck to everyone that are applying for colleges. As you are going through your list to apply for colleges, please also put down "Apply for FIRST Scholarships." As Genia pointed out in the "2008 FIRST Scholarships" thread, I believe FIRST will post a list of scholarships available in October. Keep in mind, when you get to college, no matter how rich you are, you will be struggling for money. Even if it's a $100 scholarship, apply for it, money adds up REAL fast.

[Pavan Dave]

I'm applying to:

University of Texas at Dallas - First Choice
Texas Tech - Second Choice
University of Houston - Third Choice

I have teams lined up for UTD and TTU if I get into one of them... If I am binded by Houston then I will see about taking a small role in a team within an hours drive...



What I want to major in:

Electrical Engineering, but I also might minor in CS (if UTD) or possibly even dual degree.

Pavan.

[Scott Carpman]

I've been offered a half scholarship to RPI, but I have to get into the school first.

RPI Early Desicion
Civil Engineering with a concentration in Transportation
Maybe a minor in something cool

If not accepted(in no order):
Drexel
Cornell
Binghamton
Stony Brook
Delaware
Northeastern
Polytechnic
Buffalo

[James1902]

applying to,
UCF,
UF,
FIT
Hopefully mechanical engineering

[Taylor]

As a proud Purdue grad, I'm encouraged by the number of out-of-staters looking at the Old Gold and Black. In addition to being a top-5 engineering/technology school (as well as being a pharmacy, business management, agriculture, and veterinary science mecca), I should hope the Boilermaker Regional has swayed some apps as well. Best regional in Indiana!

[Daniel Bathgate]

I'm intending on majoring in computer engineering (I might move to electrical engineering or computer science, but I'm fairly confident in the general field.)

My current list (in no particular order):
Franklin W. Olin
Harvey Mudd
Rose-Hulman
CalPoly
Stanford
WPI
MIT
CMU
Case Western
Northwestern
Wash U in St. Louis
