I am looking for a school on the east or west coast with a high acceptance rate, residentialcampus with a bioengineering degree option that doesn’t allow cars on campus. I would like to know how reasonable this is and hopefully find a school that has all these things
It’s not reasonable or realistic. No college can prohibit all students from having cars. After all Jrs and Srs
are often over the age of 21. They can drink but cant drive?? I dont think so…
Why would that be important or even a factor?
Some colleges dont allow freshman to have cars on campus, but most do.
Why is the lack of cars a factor for you? Even a school like NYU allows students to have cars if they want to pay the exorbitant Manhattan parking costs.
A lot of colleges in cities don’t want cars on their campus because there is nowhere to park… And I didn’t mean that students literally aren’t allowed to own or drive cars just to have them on campus. I know that this isn’t ridiculous
The first two parts are reasonable, but if you’re not willing to make concessions on the residential or acceptance rate thing, you’re not going to find any school which fits the latter criteria. A
re you looking for an urban college with a high acceptance rate that offers bioengineering and has a mainly residential student body?
That’s the goal. I’m of course willing to let go of some things for others
I believe that U of Chicago almost its the bill, as there are few places on or around campus designated for student parking.

BUT, it is neither on the East or West Coast…
sometimes you can’t have it all…
Which is totally fine! Thanks for the help!!!
you KNOW how hard it is to get into Chicago, right? I missed the part about high acceptance rate, sorry…
Dont put all your eggs in one basket…
Time to start hanging out on the U of Chicago forums …
Yeah I have looked into it, its like 8% which is about the same as duke
Check out Johns Hopkins, while you’re at it. http://www.bme.jhu.edu
Chicago doesn’t have a BME program…
^^ they now have a molecular engineering program :
Our interdisciplinary nature encourages those from physics, biology, and chemistry to use their expertise to find applications that address pressing real-world issues.
In the Spring of 2015, we added a robust and challenging major to our undergraduate curriculum. This is the first engineering undergraduate program to be implemented at the University of Chicago. Undergraduates are now able to pursue both a minor and a major in Molecular Engineering.
