Majoring in electrical engineering. Congrats to everyone :D
Please do yourself a favor and at least visit Notre Dame. Was an Irish EE myself!

Notre Dame is my second choice, (especially since I have a full ride there through AFROTC, merit at TAMU), but I've been liking aggieland more and more 
Although, it's not hard to beat the architecture at A&M. It's pretty bland. XD

As an EE undergraduate at ND, you're essentially guaranteed research opportunity if you make any effort at asking for it. We also have a very high rate of internship / recruitment / hiring directly off the seniors, despite how small the class are each year.
Oh ya, they also finish building that fancy new lab my year.

Applied ED to Carleton College and got accepted :D Applying early makes everything so much easier imo. Good luck to everyone!

Accepted Rutgers University
Waitlisted Brandeis University Boston University Northeastern University
Rejected Boston College Vassar College
t-t
Probably getting turned down at Brown U/Amherst/Williams in the next two days. Great day to start off my spring break, huh?
|
Oh well conversion, it will all work out. I am surprised northeastern waitlisted you
|
Yeah, I was quite honestly surprised at BU and NEU waitlists, not trying to sound cocky. Brandeis/BC/Vassar I can understand because I wasn't the most impressive student, transcript wise 
I just hope if I do get off the waitlist, it's soon and I get enough money because I'm far too poor to pay anything above like 4k/year tt.

Waitlist means you're probably not going to get any merit aid, though financial aid is still possible-- however from my experience, schools are quite skimpy with financial aid unless you're actually really poor, or you fake your taxes. The most financial aid I got from any school was actually 6K... from UC Berkeley; I am out of state too, so basically all the colleges I got into I'd be paying ~50K. Money was why I chose Emory in the end, haha.
There are a lot of external scholarships available you can apply for though. If you look and try hard for a couple, you will definitely get one.

How is this even close? Well, if he lives in Michigan tuition might actually be quite compelling. U Chicago grad is insanely expensive.

How is this even close? who knows, money is a big factor. also UM and UChicago are both elite schools and are not too different in quality.
Uhhh... no. UM is good I'll grant, but UChicago is top 10.
