My top three

College Search & Selection
1

<p>I'm currently ending my junior year of high school. I have about a 3.4 gpa and i'd say i have a fairly tough schedule. took APUSH, honors pre calc, and honors chem to give examples. next year some of my tough classes include ap calc, ap stats, and physics. i currently plan on majoring in aerospace engineering when i go to college. Currently my top three schools are</p>

<ol>
<li>Purdue</li>
<li>OSU</li>
<li>Cincinnati</li>
</ol>

<p>Do these seem like good choices? I'm not really sure if I would want to go to a high-profile school such as MIT or an ivy league school. I'm thinking I would prefer public. How much of a chance would I probably have of getting into any of these schools and getting money to go there (especially Purdue). Also, what other good engineering colleges are there in and around Ohio?</p>

<p>By the way, I took my SAT last saturday and am taking my ACT this saturday so obviously i dont have any test scores yet</p>

<p>Those are all good choices for aero. Without your SAT/ACT it’s tough to forecast whether you’ll be accepted. Wright State and U Dayton are also good for aero (near Wright-Patterson AFB so opportunities to intern there).</p>

<p>Disclaimer: I am an alumni of UC. Having said that, Cincinnati has a terrific Aerospace Engineering program. I can’t compare it to OSU or Purdue since I don’t know about their programs.</p>
