<p>TieneHopes – if you are already accepted into Purdue and they can offer you a full ride then consider it very seriously. Indiana is cold, but not that bad. I checked out their website and they do have a complete Aerospace program that I was unaware of. Here is the link: <a href=“https://engineering.purdue.edu/AAE[/url]”>https://engineering.purdue.edu/AAE</a></p>
<p>Thank you Waverly, happymomof1 and born2dance94. Good advice. TieneHopes, if Purdue does not work out financially or if you just don’t like the school then go to a CC for a year, get some GE’s out of the way and transfer to a Cal Poly. Cal Poly SLO is more selective and has a better reputation, but Cal Poly Pomona is literally on the way to Las Vegas from Los Angeles and will keep you closer to family. You will qualify for Cal Poly Pomona right now and it is located in Southern California which is a huge Aerospace development hub. Here are the kinds of places that recruit directly from Cal Poly Pomona: the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Raytheon, Northrup Grumman, etc., etc. You are very, very young and have PLENTY of time.</p>
