Help on my College Options

<p>I'm deciding between..
Tulane University w/ 22,000 scholarship</p>

<p>George Washington w/ full tuition scholarship</p>

<p>Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (i know i've been accepted, but have not received the letter, therefore do not know how much money gave me.. but i was hoping for a good sum since they seem to be pretty generous)</p>

<p>I want to major in biomedical engineering. i'm torn because GW gave me a great scholarship but their engineering program is not as strong. Tulane and RPI have much better BME programs. I do, however, want to go on to medical school to become a doctor. I am choosing to do BME because it is a great undergrad major to prep for med school and at the same time, you are graduating with a engineering degree. So if med school doesn't work out, I will have another profession to fall back on. I don't know what school I should choose. </p>

<p>Do any of you have opinions or have any comments on any of the 3 schools? Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks!</p>

<p>sorry chickenlegs, i really don't know enough about the three schools to offer any help. Perhaps you should post this question on the individual school boards.</p>

<p>wow well u got some nice scholarships... may i ask how u think u got them? like ur hook tht is...</p>

<p>i didn't have a hook, i don't think. just 3.9 gpa, 31 ACT, plenty of ECs-nothing extraordinary like starting my own club, etc. i'd say i was pretty well rounded.. perhaps that why?</p>
