<p>o...k, no need to get your panties in a bunch, bud. i didnt direct that comment toward any school in particular....i simply said UMD, VT, and Lehigh are the best of what i applied to. true, temple is pretty damn far down on the list, not even in US News report on best grad schools for civil (while all the other are....i think lol). and yes, it IS my last choice, for obvious reasons.</p>
<p>temples civil program is pretty crappy in comparison to the others listed, but i know my dad said hes worked with temple grads, so im not bashing it. though i do wish my dad told me this b4 i accepted bloomsburg and rejected temples undergrad civil program :/</p>
<p>that doesnt even matter anyways. i went to bloom which obviously sucks for any kind of sciences (except exercise science....if you can call that a science), HOWEVER i have already been accepted to lehigh :) i didnt post it in this thread cause i made a new one. but yes, im in lehigh for sure. i saw the campus and the ATLSS lab is pretty cool, as is fritz. i honestly expected it to be a little nicer considering the tuition, but whatever, a degree that says LEHIGH U Master of Structural Engineering really takes you places in the field. im gonna wait for VT and UMD before i officially accept though. and im not expecting to get into either anyway...</p>
