<p>Your son can get into many, many colleges with those statistics, so to pick a college in general, there are a lot of other questions to considers, including size of school, region of the country, urban or rural, and intended major. Since you specifically mentioned an engineering major, two schools that come to mind are
- Missouri University of Science and Technology in Rolla [Missouri</a> University of Science and Technology, Explore](<a href=“http://explore.mst.edu/undergrad_departmental_list.html]Missouri”>http://explore.mst.edu/undergrad_departmental_list.html) see especially [Missouri</a> University of Science and Technology, Admissions](<a href=“futurestudents.mst.edu – Future Students | Missouri S&T”>futurestudents.mst.edu – Future Students | Missouri S&T) and
- Michigan Technological University in Houghton. [Michigan</a> Tech Academic Departments and Resources](<a href=“http://www.mtu.edu/academics/]Michigan”>Colleges and Departments | Michigan Tech)</p>
<p>For thinking about an engineering major in particular, I’m going to refer you to this earlier thread but read the whole thing. There is a lot of diversity of opinion on here, and several posters suggest that only A students can become engineers - and others, of course, disagree. </p>
<p>On the other hand, either MS&T or MTU have other majors available, but they really are tech schools, so if he decides he wants to be an psychology major instead, he may not be happy. Here is the earlier thread:

<p>If he really wants to become an engineer, a very important consideration for him is to be sure he does not go to a weed’em out school, a school where they make an effort to cut down the number of engineering majors early on by having the early courses be very difficult. This is not uncommon and would not be a good situation for a student who earned B to B+ grades in high school.</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
