I love Dartmouth’s campus and the focus on the undergraduate experience. I am so torn because the Engineering department is not exactly what I want. I think I want to be an engineer, and then, I am not sure. Should I apply to more comprehensive schools? I toured Stanford and I am going to Cornell next month and RPI. I have been to Duke and UCB. I liked Stanford’s campus, but nothing compares to the Dartmouth experience from what I understand. My sister graduated from Dartmouth and to this day (3 years ago) still loves Hanover and Dartmouth. We can be anywhere in the world and she runs into Dartmouth alums! There seems to be such a bond and I want the true “college” experience, but I do think I want to major in engineering. Anyone willing to throw their 2 cents in on the Engineering at Dartmouth and the possibility of getting a job in engineering, NOT FINANCE!!
