<p>Hey,
I know it is pretty late to be doing this, but over summer I have only checked out 2 schools- UIUC and Purdue. I will be a senior in the fall. I would like to major in Computer Engineering.
Here is my question: Where would be some good places for me to check out/Apply to? I would like to stay pretty close (~4 hours would probably be max). I live near Chicago.
I liked UIUC and Purdue, and I know I will probably go back and visit them again, but I would like to check out more schools in case I don't get in. UW-Madison looks pretty nice. </p>

<p>Here is some stats:
-GPA - Unweighted: 3.90 / 4
-GPA - Weighted: 4.01 (by my schools system) /4
-Class Rank: top 10% (80/950)
-Class Size: 950
-ACT: 33
-AP Clases: 2 (Comp. Sci. and Calc)</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
-Heavily involved with church youth group(4 Years)
-Cross Country (3 years)
-Track(3 Years)
-NHS (1 year)</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>
