<p>I plan to study either computer science, mathematics, aerospace engineering, or electrical engineering</p>
<p>Your search will be easier because Aerospace engineering can be used as a limiting factor.
A school that has aerospace will also have EE,math and CS. Here is a list of all 66 colleges with “Aerospace, Aeronautical and Astronautical/SpaceEngineering” according to the College Navigator.</p>
<p>You can use the additional options on the left to narrow the list by including locations, sizes, selectivity etc.
You can gets tons of data on each school (research expenditures, degree granted by major etc.etc.) at the American Society for Engineering Education -
[ASEE.org</a> - ASEE - Publications - College Profiles - Search the Profiles](<a href=“http://profiles.asee.org/]ASEE.org”>http://profiles.asee.org/)</p>
<p>how much will your parents spend? If you don’t know, ask.</p>
<p>Also, if you’re going to need merit scholarships to help pay for college, you need to get some apps in VERY soon since many have scholarship deadlines between now and early Dec.</p>
<p>I think you would be competitive among the top aerospace engineering schools. What you look for in a school or what you can afford is important though</p>
<p>Thanks for all the info guys…to answer your questions</p>
<p>I have not applied for any scholarships i honestly am extremely new to the college search and i would definitely need help paying for college…there is a good chance i could be recruited for baseball…but could anybody give me a list of colleges that would be worth applying to? Thanks</p>
<p>There are only 66 schools with aero, and I posted the link to the search results in my post above.
Start looking through the list and do some research on your own.
Come back here for feedback on your ideas.
Don’t allow total strangers to make your list for you. This is your future. Only YOU can define what makes a college “worth applying to”.</p>
<p>Beantowngirl gave you a starting point, but be careful of your search terms. I notice Stanford isn’t listed but: [Aeronautics</a> & Astronautics Home](<a href=“http://aa.stanford.edu/]Aeronautics”>http://aa.stanford.edu/) Could be the case with many others as well.</p>
<p>In the meantime, what other criteria do you have for selection a school besides those majors and good financial aid and/or scholarships? For example, how do you feel about being at a tech school (like MIT or Caltech) vs. a non-tech (like Stanford). Is there a part of the country you care about? School size? Do you want to be on the team or just play rec?</p>
