An INFP's college choices -- evaluate?

<p>Yes, I know. I am going to apply as an Engineering major. And I really am INFP.</p>

<p>Here are the places I'm applying to:</p>

<p>Penn
CMU
UIUC
Umich
Purdue
Bucknell
HarveyMudd
UCBerkeley
Cornell</p>

<p>So, here's my question: Am I really going to find what stereotypically my personality type requires at these places? Where, out of these places, would I be the most content as a person? </p>

<p>Where am I best suited to go to, considering I get in all these places?</p>

<p>THAAAANKS</p>

<p>4 letters from some stupid personality test aren't going to tell you where you fit in at a college. What kind of atmosphere are you looking for? Rural? Urban? Huge campus? Small campus? Climate?</p>

<p>You can't be serious! Are you really going to base your decision on a personality test?!</p>

<p>I'm an ISTJ and am at Michigan. I love it here and couldn't imagine myself anywhere else.</p>

<p>yeah seriously =_= uh this is not going to help.
Anywhere you go though you'll usually find a place to fit in especially if it's a big university.</p>

<p>Lol</p>

<p>That was a decent bit of perspective, thanks. </p>

<p>It's just that I relate quite precisely to the INFP stereotype. Michigan's definitely one of my top choices, considering I get in. </p>

<p>People tell me that I'd find myself most suited at a liberal arts college -- but then again, I want to do engineering. So I apply to harvey mudd, and I love the idea of going there, but then again, I might want to double major, and at mudd it's close to impossible.</p>

<p>sigh sigh!</p>

<p>Then AGAIN, I got in Purdue today -- so I'm going SOMEWHERE. It's my safety, and the feeling after acceptance is definitely a safe one :D</p>

<p>Interesting. I would recommend Harvey Mudd as a place that's usually quite accepting of various quirks and personalities. I'm an INFP, and I go to Scripps. I've never really felt out of place here but I understand that Harvey Mudd has a rather different environment. I'm a bit biased, but the Mudders I know seem to be content and engaged despite the quiet intensity of the curriculum. </p>

<p>Of course, the engineering track at Mudd is extremely challenging and you get little freedom to take courses outside of your major, so depends on your priorities I suppose. I know I came into college intending to double major and then realizing that my interests are far too diverse to encompass into two areas of study. It does seem like a specific type of student tends to fit in at Mudd, but it's definitely something to consider. Your schools seem extremely different - so maybe you need to consider the different factors that you look for in a college and narrow it down from there.</p>
