| Help choosing (Computer) Engineering School So, I've more or less decided that Computer Engineering (and a possible minor in video game design, depending on the school) is the field I am interested in. I even plan to write my essay on technology and my fascination with how things work, etc. So, I've made a list of schools I wish to attend, and I'm curious of a few things: Which do I have a chance at getting into? Which have the strongest computer engineering programs? How are the schools all around (ie social atmosphere, educational quality, etc.)? I am primarily looking at schools in the Northeast.
Well, here is my info.:
I am a white male from New York, attending a small public high school.
I have a 92.9 unweighted GPA, 95.6 weighted (sorry, only have it in % form)
My SAT scores are: 570 CR, 690 M, 640 W.
My ACT comp. is a 26 (I believe my SAT scores are better).
My rank is 11 out of 91.
My list of extra-curriculars includes: Vice President of my school's community service organization, head of a few programs in it, possible founder and president of a Habitat for Humanity chapter in my school, member of National Honor Society, Yearbook Club, a few others.
My list is:
RPI
SUNY Binghamton
SUNY Buffalo
Cornell
WEBB Institute (for Naval Architecture)
Cooper Union
Bucknell
Lafayette
Lehigh
Brown
Tufts
Carnegie Mellon
Northeastern
Also, I have a 15k/year scholarship to RPI, and alumni relations at WEBB and Carnegie Mellon.
Thanks in advance,
Mike.
P.S.: I am aware that some may be quite a reach. I am just trying to get an idea. |
