I am going to be attending Allegheny College in the fall to major in Computer Engineering…the only problem I have with this is the fact that it is a liberal arts school and not a big science/engineering-oriented school…Is it bad that I am going to a liberal arts school for engineering??? My mom keeps reminding me that Bucknell is also liberal arts but it’s engineering program is top rated which is true…so I don’t know. I just really did not want to go to this school but the way my college and financial decisions panned out…it just ended up that I had to go here. Mainly was my parents choice, and if I did not go there then getting any help in the summer trying to get ready for college, I was going to get none from them unless I went to Allegheny. It sucks…I want to transfer after freshman year badly but I don’t even know where I would go nor do I know of anywhere that accepts a lot of transfers because most good colleges don’t.
