LEAD Engineering

<p>Has anyone attended? How did you feel about it? I'm considering applying, but don't like the idea of being forced to attend for 2 consecutive summers. How do they enforce this?</p>

<p>Any other engineering programs out there?</p>

<p>i guess its a pretty new program…</p>

<p>my DS went to LEAD SBI and one of his fellow LEADers was also going to the Engineering program and liked it a lot. I would search facebook for the LEAD engineering group because I know each LEAD group had a facebook page. You could read their postings and also post your question there.</p>

<p>Thanks for your help!</p>

<p>The apps are due in 7 days! AHHH! xD
Why are there so little threads about the LEAD Engineering program? I know it’s new but it does seem very cool! Has anyone done the program? Is the program as selective as the LEAD Business program? How selective is the program anyways? Do Asians count as minorities regarding Engineering? Does anyone have the stats for last year’s acceptance rate? How heavily do they weigh the essays? Because I absolutely SUCK at writing essays! </p>

<p>Please if anyone have the answers to these questions, please answer! xD</p>

<p>Where did you read that you must participate in the program for two consecutive years? I didn’t see that anywhere.</p>

<p>Thanks</p>
