<p>im looking for some colleges in NY State for either electrical or computer engineering, maybe microelctrical engineering. anyone have some suggestions on those majors? anyways, i live in rochester, ny and have already visited RIT which amazed me andim visiting UoR in a few hours... UoR doesnt have CE tho so if i did go there it would most likely be for EE. do you guys recommend any other colleged in NY? maybe even in Pennsylvania?</p>
<p>Consider:</p>
<p>NY:
Cornell
RPI
Stony Brook</p>
<p>NJ: Rutgers
PA: CMU, Penn State, UPitt</p>
<p>University at Buffalo.
Union College</p>
<p>what about columbia and cooper union</p>
<p>thx guys, ill check those out. for pen, how about UPENN and Bucknell?</p>
<p>ripken,</p>
<p>You haven't posted your stats so it's a little hard to suggest schools. </p>
<p>I am also from Rochester and my son, who applied for electrical/computer engineering, was accepted at Rensselaer, Worcester Polytech, RIT, Northeastern, Purdue, Case Western, Ohio University in Athens, Univ of Pittsburgh and Rose Hulman. He is still deciding where to attend.</p>
<p>You might consult the ABET web site - they are the accreditation body for engineering. You can search by major and state for accredited programs. </p>
<p>We also visited Bucknell (not my son's scene), Penn State (too big), Univ Michigan (I don't know...) and probably some others that I'm forgetting. </p>
<p>So, it might help if you post your stats, and think about what you're looking for in a campus (big, small, urban, rural, whatever) and if you have financial restrictions. For instance we don't qualify for much financial aid so he was looking for merit aid.</p>
<p>Good luck!!!</p>
<p>well i have like a 90 average at McQuaid, which you should know is a very hard school. im taking 3 APs this year and 2-3 next year. ~1300 SAT for my 1st time, hoping to get that up the next time. the financial restriction will depend on how much financial aid/merit i can get from these different colleges. i dont want a big college.</p>
