<p>I love to ski and im having some trouble locating good engineering schools close as i can get to a ski slope. Does anyone know of any? Also note that no cross country skiing.</p>
<p>Colorado School of Mines...duh.</p>
<p>actually there is RIT, they even have a ski club that has over half of its student body participating in it, great engineering and technical school too</p>
<p>Dartmouth.</p>
<p>McGill (Montreal, Canada)
Clarkson</p>
<p>RPI, Cornell, Lehigh, Clarkson.</p>
<p>Univ. of Utah and BYU. They didn't hold the Winter Olympics there for nothing.</p>
<p>Tons of Vermont schools, mostly state schools, but skiing is one of the best there.</p>
<p>I was going to suggest Clarkson, but it depends on how you define "good."</p>
<p>Syracuse U--very hilly
Ithaca College too.</p>
<p>MIT has a couple of ski clubs that transport students up to New England mountains.</p>
<p>Boston isn't terribly close to the good Eastern mountains, but my fiance (MIT student) and I (MIT alum) go to Maine every winter weekend to go skiing, and it's not too bad a drive. :)</p>
<p>Well i am a good student (3.8 NHS interact sadd sports ect.) and i want to go to a good engineering program. The only one i knew had engineer and skiing was cornell and i did look into it, but cornell is really selective and an ivy league school. I am going to apply there next year but i was looking for some other school that may be a little easier to get into and a less ex*****ve too. Also i would rather not travel across the country, I live in pittsburgh, so i am looking at the New England ones.</p>
<p>Colorado College, but thats mainly liberal arts</p>
<p>UC Davis is very close to Lake Tahoe, but it would be big $ for you/OOS.</p>
<p>In your case, I would use Clarkson (in NY) as a safety or near-safety.</p>
<p>University of Vermont has an engineering school that is quite well respected. It's located in Burlington which is a wonderful college city (walking distance to the downtown area), and you can't beat the skiing.</p>
<p>UC- boulder</p>
<p>A little bit lower down the engineering prestige chain (but still solid programs), a few ski-friendly schools would be Montana State, Colorado State, or U of New Mexico.</p>
<p>Colorado-Boulder
Utah</p>
<p>Sierra Nevada College <a href="http://www.sierranevada.edu/%5B/url%5D">www.sierranevada.edu/</a></p>
