<p>I’m an asian dude planning on to major in engineering and got accepted into
UIC, Iowa State, VTech, U of Minnesota, and Penn State.
But tricky enough because of my iffy gpa all of those schools
except UIC and Iowa, put me into different programs…</p>
<p>J of Minnesota
-they put me into liberal arts and told me I’m on the waiting list for engineering</p>
<p>Penn State
-got into college of engineering but they put me into the Altoona campus
where I think they don’t even have engineering degrees… possibly
gonna have to transfer to main campus in 2 yrs… idk if it’s possible in 1yr…</p>
<p>VTech
-they put me into university studies program… where I have to complete
certain classes with 2.0 gpa (not bad…) but there’s this one engineering class
that I can’t take the first semester and have to wait… heard that seat availability
is based on gpa from 1st semester…</p>
<p>Iowa State
-$5,500 scholarship and got into enginering</p>
<p>UIC
-got into engineering…
-I’m a resident of IL</p>
<p>I got only a few weeks to decide… and I can’t afford to make visits…
I heard VT is relatively easy to get into engineering once you’re accepted
and has nice dorm rooms and FOOD :] …
I’m leaning towards VT… and also since I got asian parents and a brother who are not
particularly in good financial shape… so they are really sensitive of
job prospects from each school…
(oh yeah so also I am looking up for any scholarships as well… advices??)
I need some recommendations or any helpful advices anything… please
help a brother out idk if it’s just me but I’m excited and a bit nervous
that this might be one of my choices of life…</p>
