<p>My S1 is a Jr. at Lafayette, environmental engineering and he has been to info sessions about engineering grad school and came away understanding that if he has good grades, dedication and some strong research under his belt that he would not be paying for his Masters. My niece went to U of Delaware for civil engineering and then went on to UVa for Masters in Engineering and did not pay for it either. Not saying that the state school option isn’t still the best route but wanted to give you some food for thought.</p>
