Chemical Engineering Schools?

College Search & Selection
1

<p>My guidance counselor asked me for a list of colleges that I plan to apply to next year. This is really tough because I don't have my SAT I scores back yet. Based on my practice tests I should have about 720 in math, 650 critical reading, and at least 700 in writing. I want to major in Chemical Engineering, but I am also considering Chemistry or Mechanical Engineering. I'm a fairly serious womens soccer player and have been contacted by several division 3 schools, though most of them don't even offer an engineering major. I don't really think I'm good enough to play division 1 soccer. I have a gpa of 4.5weighted, 3.8 unweighted. I dream of going to an excellent engineering school and playing varsity soccer.</p>

<p>I've already visited Georgia Tech (liked it a lot, no womens soccer), Dartmouth & Penn, (liked both but doubt I'd ever get in academically, great womens soccer). I want to see some more potential schools this summer. Any suggestions?</p>

<p>(your stats could allow you to get into Penn Engineering)
But anyhow, some other engineering schools that are less selective:
Lehigh Univ.
UC B (if instate)
Tulane Univ.
Carnegie Mellon
Penn State
RPI
WPI
These are in no particular order.</p>

<p>oblivionight's list looks good though I don't know how strong they are exactly in the 3 fields you specified. Definitely check out Northwestern whose undergrad engineering program is ranked 13th which is very good considering it's a non-technical (not like MIT, Georgia Tech) private university. Chemistry, mechanical engineering and chemical engineering are all in top-15. You should also check out Michigan if you don't mind public.</p>
