<p>Hi, I just got all my responses from colleges back and now I'm deciding between three schools: Rensselaer Polytechnic Insitute, Northeastern University, and Lehigh University. I am going to major in chemical engineering a possibly minor in business. Here's what I have to say for each university.</p>
<p>Rensselaer: This school is very well respected for its engineering, which really attracts me. Of the three, I think I like the academics of this the most. Plus it will have many nerds like me so I'll fit in more. What I don't like about this school is that I hear the social life is bad. There is a 67:33 men to women ratio so I'll have a tough time meeting girls. Plus I hear the social scene is extremely weak and I want to learn to be more social which I will have a problem with at RPI</p>
<p>Northeastern: Of the three universities, Northeastern probably has the best social life for me. It's a little big for my taste whereas the other two are the perfect size. The engineering isn't quite as strong in this university as it is in the other two, but the Co-op is very good and it is the most well known of the three. </p>
<p>Lehigh: The main thing that attracts me to Lehigh is the Integrated Business and Engineering honors program that I got into. Not only does it integrate what I want to integrate in college, but it's also an honors program that I'm sure would help me out. It's barely ranked higher than Rensselaer and Northeastern, but some would argue it isn't as good as either. My biggest problem with Lehigh is the student body, but for opposite reasons as Rensselaer. It's a party school and I'm definitely not a partier. Plus I'm Asian and I hear that at Rensselaer there is very little inter-race mingling. </p>
<p>So which of these three would you recommend for me? Thanks.</p>
