<p>BobbyCT: Furman was a favorite on my D’s list until I began looking at ways she would get back home (IL). No easy options so off the list it went. ALso, with Furman D would have 11 which she felt was an unlucky number (?). She ended up cutting Furman.:{.</p>

<p>D. hopes to study Neuroscience/psychology with hopes of med school after undergrad.</p>

<p>Anyway so far the list looks like this (in no particular order)</p>

<p>1 rice
2 emory
3 case
4 tulane
5 william and mary
6 clemson
7 carthage
8 st.louis university
9. university of richmond
10. miami univ of ohio</p>

<p>spring162, from the Greenville area, you could take Greyhound or Amtrak to the Atlanta airport and then fly home. The train leaves at like 5 in the morning so you won’t miss any flights, i dunno about greyhound though</p>

43

<p>From CA
Major: Engineering (Bio, Electrical, or Chemical)</p>

<p>In no Order:</p>

<p>All the UC’S (Except maybe Riverside and Merced)
USC
Purdue
Boston University
Cal Poly</p>

<p>Do you guys have any suggestions for any privates engineering colleges? Not like MIT or Stanford. Like a College with a 30%-50% acceptance rate.</p>

44

<p>Shame so many of you are applying to BU and dont realize what a monumental waste of money it is.</p>

45

<p>How come? </p>

<p>I don’t know much about it, you suggest any other privates in the Boston area or anywhere else?</p>

46

<p>I dont understand why Californians have such a fascination with BU. It’s like UC-Boston</p>

47

<p>My dad works in Boston, so I am interested in Boston as well. Have any suggestions?</p>

48

<p>I dont think private schools are worth the money. I’d go to a UC.</p>

49

<p>Yale
Brown
Princeton
Columbia
University of Chicago
Georgetown SFS
Amherst
Williams
Harvard</p>

50

<p>BU = a huge waste of money, listen there are many schools just as good as BU out there that doesn’t cost $55,000 if you don’t get significant financial aid/scholarships</p>

51

<p>does it look bad if you apply to like 5 schools EA like I’ve seen some people may do on here??</p>

52

<p>Brown - haha
UCLA - yup these two are SUPER REACHES
Bucknell
Holy Cross
Fairfield
Gettysburg
Penn State
Providence College
Quinnipiac
Rutgers
Syracuse
Temple
TCNJ
Trinity
U Hartford</p>

<p>Still a bit iffy on Gettysburg, Quinnipiac and Syracuse. Might add a SUNY or two as well.</p>

53

<p>don’t worry about applying to as many schools as you want EA because school’s don’t find out about it</p>

<p>the only time this would be a problem is if the school specifically states that it has a “single choice early action” policy</p>
