Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I’m an Indian who moved to the US about 5 years ago. My Biggest problem is that I don’t know where to apply, so please suggest schools you think I should add to my list. (BTW, I have been doing research and talking to my counselor, she suggested case western reserve, Purdue, Carnegie Mellon( which I think it’s a way reach/no match so not sure why she suggested it) and Miami university( don’t think they have a good engineering program). I would like to go into computer and electronic/electric engineering. </p>

<p>Chance Me for:
Ohio State university ( trying for the Morrill Scholarship)
University of Dayton
University of Cincinnati
Any other universities you might think I should apply to around Ohio.

<p>thanks Catria!
Another college I’m thinking about is Rose Hulman Institute of technology. it seems nice but doesnt seem very well known.</p>

<p>Bump…</p>

<p>Rose Hulman is a great alternative! Nice campus, smaller than some of the schools you’ve mentioned, if you prefer that. PM me if you have any other specific questions</p>

<p>DO NOT submit your SAT. You have a very good ACT, and submitting both would hurt you. </p>

<p>With that said:</p>

<p>CMU: Reach
OSU: Safety
U Dayton: Safety
U Cincinnati: Safety
Case Western: Low Match
Purdue: Low Match</p>

<p>Rose-Hulman: Match</p>

<p>You can even aim for the Ivies (even though there’s one Ivy that’s above the rest for CS/E, Cornell) if you wanted to.</p>
