I need ~1-2 more schools. Thanks guys.</p>
<ol>
<li> Columbia Early Decision</li>
<li> UPenn</li>
<li> Cornell</li>
<li> Carnegie Mellon</li>
<li> NYU Polytech*</li>
<li> University of Rochester</li>
<li> University of Binghamton</li>
<li> RPI*</li>
<li> Fordham*</li>
<li> Drexel*</li>
<li>CUNY City College</li>
<li> St. Johns*</li>
<li> Boston University</li>
<li>denotes free application, so I wouldn’t be applying to these schools if there was an application fee (besides Drexel and Fordham )</li>
</ol>
<p>I want to stay in the Northeast.
Engineering Schools.</p>
<p>this list looks fantastic. I think NYU-Poly is an awesome backup school/any type of school. If THOSE types of schools are on your list, you’ll probably get a VERY nice scholarship offer from Poly, and a beautiful acceptance, so it’s one fantastic fall-back…if that’s what you need it to be. lol oh yeah, don’t count out your safety schools. I was just like you and only applied to some schools, like Poly, because of the free application. And I got in, and I loved it infinitely more than Carnegie Mellon or Northwestern, much to my dad’s surprise – and chagrin; he looks at the rankings way too much. if you visit, I think you’ll like the school and the atmosphere…seriously, check it out! it’s getting exponentially better ever since it became affiliated with NYU. :)</p>
<p>other amazing engineering colleges in the northeast? I’m thinking… but I think you’ve got them all. unless you want to add MIT/Olin/WPI - they’re in the Boston area. and they’re great engineering schools. and maybe Cooper Union, but it’s deathly intense lol.</p>
<p>I… would recommend a state school. e.g. NJIT if you’re from New Jersey. keep in mind that the less your college costs, the more you get to keep in your pocket :D</p>
<p>I am actually going to visit NYUPoly tomorrow. Tomorrows their open house.
Hopefully I will like it the same way you do.</p>
<p>MIT - Eh. Dont want to waste time on the application and get denied. Theres an amazing kid in my school whos applying. So I dont think Ill get accepted. lol
Olin - doesn’t have chem e i believe
WPI - Ill look into it.
NJIT - I hear its ridiculously dangerous
Cooper - I visited it and HATE it lol. Too nerdy :(</p>
<p>Thanks for your advice sir.
Ill look into WPI.</p>
<p>no. way. I’m working at the open house. lmao but I have to leave at 2, and I’m manning a desk in a building no one will visit, so odds are you shan’t see me.</p>
<p>yeah! that’s the main reason why I didn’t go to NJIT. I got an AMAZING scholarship…like, after paying for tuition and room/board, I <em>still</em> had money leftover. But I wasn’t keen about Newark. The facilities and opportunities there are supposed to be great though. Kids who go there for 1-2 years have transferred into MIT. Speaking of uber nerdy schools, yeah, that is definitely the Cooper Union way. My friend goes there and was bombarded with work from the start.</p>
<p>I hope you do like NYU-Poly! and that you show up early so you can find a parking space lol.</p>
<p>p.s. I’m actually a girl :o yeah I know, right? girl + engineering school… it just doesn’t compute haha.</p>
<p>Can you apply to more than one SUNY schools in your application form? If you can, you should apply to SUNY New Paltz. Binghamton becomes a reach for many in-state NY students. You should have a backup SUNY school.</p>
<p>I think you have a good, balanced list which is long enough! You don’t need any more schools haha but if you are adding, consider the applications they have (CA/nonCA)</p>
</p>
Have a good time!</p>
