<p>ucbalumnus (and others), I have visited Lehigh, as well as emailed an admissions rep I met at the college fair, they also love my school. I plan to show interest in their supplement, and do an alumni interview.</p>
<p>As for Michigan, my college guidance counselor recommends most engineering hopefuls with similar stats to apply there as a safety, looking at naviance, (and seeing how Michigan relies more on grades and scores) I should have a solid chance.</p>
<p>I’m definitely considering MIT. I know is a great engineering school, though in the event that I decide engineering is not for me, I’d like a place that has a little more variety of strong programs to offer (Yes, I know it has other great programs, but let’s face it, 40% of students are engineering majors). It also seemed pretty nerdy… (although I am a science/math guy, I’m fairly normal socially.) Though I loved the programs, campus and setting in Cambridge. Plus I have friends who are attending.</p>
<p>Cornell was beautiful, don’t get me wrong. And I know it’s a fantastic engineering program. But I think it was bigger than what I am looking for. The weather also seemed terrible in the winter (not to mention gloomy/depressing)… And even though Ithica is a great college town, it’s really out in the middle of no where…</p>
<p>WPI I’m also considering as a safety, though like for MIT, I’d like a place with more variety.</p>
<p>RPI… we visited. I didn’t like it. plus it’s like 70% guys…</p>
<p>bclintonk WUSTL and Hopkins would be considered high matches. They love my school and from naviance and my college counselor, I’m in good standings.</p>
