Did you visit the campus?

 

[beyonddc]

Congraduation! RIT is a very great engineering school. That was actually my first pick when I select my schools, but I got rejected from them. LOL

oh-well, went to another engineering school and got my CS degree and now happily employed.

yes. the campus isnt the best...reminds me of all the SUNY campuses (i live in albany) i grew up around suny albany...

the RIT campus is kinda dull...

and the guy/girl ratio sucks terribly.

oh well! its a pretty decent school. my cousin went there and liked it a lot.

Congrats, they offer you their Presidential Scholarship yet? For a 1380 and a 4.1 GPA(W) they gave me $28,000 for four years, which ain't too much. Hopefully you'll get as much or more then that plus financial aid. They were originally high up on my list, but once I got accepted to UIUC, well the choice is obvious for me. I have a friend who goes their(to RIT) and likes it quite a bit.

[OOBradm]

I also applied to BU and NorthEastern, so im waiting to see if i get accepted to either of those to make my decision.

Even you get accepted to Northeastern, I personally think RIT is a better engineering school.

If you get accepted to BU, then you might need some thinking.

 

[DamageInc]

Hey, I was accepted there too three years ago. Chose another school though. You haven't seen anything until you've been in a snow tornado in Rochester.

 

[Kelvrick]

So RIT is pretty good? They kept sending me sh1t but I ended up staying in California. Thinking it was good considering all these nasty women comments.
