FIRST Class of 2015: Where are we going?

[TheSteamedPunk]

Man, all alone at MSOE this year? Cool seeing where everyone is headed.

WPI for Robotics Engineering! Might double-major if I find a great interest in a specific area. I'm also looking at doing a minor in Music.

Looking forward to meeting other FIRSTers at WPI!! Is it common for freshman (or WPI students in general) to mentor on 190? They seem like an awesome team.

I automatically get into a UC since I am within the top 4 percent at my school. But my back up is UCSD.

Sounds like you've got it under control

Awesome! Congratulations.

I am applied and accepted into NDSU. Ever since its rookie year, CIS has witnessed a hefty amount of its seniors join the Bison Herd; I suppose I am indeed carrying on the tradition.

You might want to be careful with that statement. You don't automatically get into a UC that you have applied to, you are just guaranteed a spot in a school that's a part of the UC system. If what you said were true, then everybody in the top 4% (top 9% at my school) would just apply to Cal (or UCLA or UCSD) and nowhere else.

The people who get automatically accepted get dumped at UC Merced I mean there is one advantage to coming out here (you get to work with a hella awesome team).

Yep, it's either UC Merced or UC Santa Cruz. Honestly, I wouldn't mind UC Merced...
