<p>i need some ideas of EC’s relating to these fields. obviously having EC’s related to your potential major can spruce up your app, but i am genuinely interested in these fields.</p>
<p>as far as civil engineering goes, there are several civil engineering/consulting firms nearby where i could shadow, etc., but i can’t really think of anything to do relating to chemE or BME, which both interest me more than civil. </p>
<p>i’ve been looking at a couple summer programs too, but i feel like colleges wouldn’t view the majority of them too highly if all you have to do is pay a few thousand and you’re in (that may just be the “national high school society” stuff mailing lists send you though). whatever, call me crazy. </p>
<p>from what i’ve heard, the M&TSI seems prestigious enough to override that feeling, but i will inquire about financial aid. the BU program advertises financial aid, so i will apply. </p>
