<p>My son plans to major in engineering and is interested in applying to Rensselaer. However he is also very much into music, plays electric guitar, and likes "progressive metal." Would he be likely to find many similarly inclined fellow students if he were to attend Rensselaer?
Thanks.</p>
<p>Definitely! There’s a whole underground music scene on campus located in one of the upperclassman dorms; it’s called Ground Zero in the basement of Nugent Hall. There’s also WRPI, which is the RPI student radio station and the music association at West Hall.</p>
<p>Thanks so much for the reply. I really appreciate it. I think I’m also going to post in the “Engineering Major” forum and ask this question in regard to several colleges/universities.</p>
