Congrats!! Buddy of mine got his letter also, his EA application was deferred then again, someone from our team was deferred last year and made it in anyways, so there's still some hope.

Re: Class of 2008 !

Ok,

So i got to ask everyone. Has anyone considered ITT Technical Institute. They offer a lot of different programs. I was a robotics student and now a volunteer for FIRST FRC Detroit Regional. I am a current ITT Tech student going for a degree in computer network systems. They also offer computer engineering and electronic Technology. I think everyone should check it out. They are nation wide

Thanks,

James

P.S. The website is www.Itt-tech.edu

Re: Class of 2008 !

For all of you considering Purdue I just want to reiterate that it is an awesome school! I'm a freshman engineering student here and my experience has been amazing, the FIRST programs here are well established and you will have a blast. You will find support wherever you need it and the friends you will make are amazing. Go boilers!

Yes, there is. I think that according to their statistics, more deferred EA candidates get accepted than RA candidates... so maybe I'll see you there in the fall.

Re: Class of 2008 !

Going to either McDaniel or Gettysburg. McDaniel was my second choice and I got accepted, so all my other applications kind of stopped mattering save Gettysburg. More than likely I'm doing McDaniel though.

I'm hoping I get a decent scholarship to help my parents out which shouldn't be tough; I'm doing their honors program and they seem to want english majors which works for me.

Re: Class of 2008 !

I decided to go to Purdue, since I got a trustee's scholarship =D. I know I'm doing engineering but I can't decide on a more specific topic, debating between chemical and nuclear engineering right now.
