<p>these are reaches for an ACT 30 unless there’s a hook??? </p>
<p>What is his career goal? JHU is super for grad school, but not sure if it’s “all that” for undergrad. (Of course, it is FINE, but for a non-medical-engineering discipline and possibly business major, why pay for undergrad there?)</p>
<p>I would be afraid that an ACT 30 might get weeded out of engineering at a top ranked school. What was his Math score on the ACT? </p>

<p>I agree.</p>

Strong Engineering Colleges
<<<<</p>
<p>Please realize that ANY established school with an established accredited College of Engineering will have a “strong” program. Virtually every state has at least 2-3 very good engineering programs (Calif has at least 25!!!). Our states and their gov’ts have a vested interest in making sure that each state has universities that can produce excellent and trained engineers for the needs of their region. </p>
<p>It’s not mid-Atlantic, but Alabama would give him free tuition plus 2500 per year for engineering (a 2/3 tuition award if not engineering). All engineering disciplines are ABET accredited, and the campus has a gorgeous state of the art new 900,000 sq ft Science and Engineering Complex…and a very good B-school, too.</p>
<p>Both Chardo and I have sons who have either graduated or will graduate from Alabama with engineering degrees.</p>
