Good tech colleges (grades not so good)

College Search & Selection
1

<p>Hello everyone. I'm looking for colleges that have good computer/engineering/tech programs. I'd like to major in Computer Science, computer engineering, or software engineering. </p>

<p>Right now, I'm looking at colleges like Oregon State and UC Riverside. </p>

<p>The catch is my grades aren't exactly that great, so don't suggest anything like MIT or cornell. I'm just above a 3.0, unweighted, and I scored 1980 on the last PSAT I took (the new 2400 scale).</p>

<p>anyone have any suggestions?</p>

<p>EDIT: I'm a junior in high school, and I've been slacking off the last year, hence the relatively low GPA. I'm getting my ass in gear this year though, but I wonder if its going to be a case of too little too late.</p>

<p>Check out New Mexico Institute of Mining & Technology. A dad wrote an interesting review of visiting the campus with his son. I believe it was in the parents forum. (not 100% positive though)</p>
