<p>Alright, so I recently decided that I am going to be attending the Illinois Institute of Technology next year with a major in EE. I am going to be commuting from home to the school, since it would save me about $10,000 a year. I was wondering what kind of a daily schedule I can expect to have next year. Would anyone mind sharing their EE or ME schedule for first semester? I know that everyone’s schedule is technically different, but I doubt that they will differ that much. I just want to see what time classes usually begin, when the last classes usually are, how many classes a day, etc. Also, are there any other important things that I should take into consideration with commuting? I have heard of numerous commuter students doing just fine in school, but I am still worried about the amount of stress commuting will put on me.</p>
<p>Sample schedules for EE and ME can be found here:

<p>Differences between different students often depend on whether the student can start in a more advanced math course than first semester freshman calculus (e.g. though [AP</a> credit](<a href=“http://www.iit.edu/ugaa/advance_placement_policy.shtml]AP”>http://www.iit.edu/ugaa/advance_placement_policy.shtml)). This may also allow starting the physics sequence a semester early.</p>
