I applied as a transfer student to The Cooper Union, Notredame, Upenn, Harvey Mudd, Swarthmore.

I was accepted to only one: The Cooper Union and have received a full ride scholarship to Cooper. Ironically, I didn’t actually know much about the reputation of Cooper until I got in. After doing some research, I realized that it was one of the most competitive and reputable schools in the country.

By the way, Kevtrice, I think I remember you from high school. Weren’t you from Overland Class of 2002? How’s MIT working out for you? I hear MIT’s unique because they offer a joint program in Master of engineering / M.B.A. I’m really interested in getting that later.
