the ratio has been 1:1 for the last three freshman classes... apparently the administration noticed that this was the main complaint and they actually managed to fix it! amazing! now if only they could make RIT into a decent school...

 

[wiredspider]

Awww, I didn't even apply. Originally I was quite interested in this school, probably wouldn't of got in anyhow:frown:.

i've heard the 1:1 rumor, but i think it's BS... there's definitely more women than in the past, but i don't think the entering classes are 1:1 yet.

I hope you don't like girls because you won't see many on your campus. I go to University of Rochester that's just down the street. We pwn you at everything (including girls)

so where is RPI??? RPI pwns RIT . look at the top tier list on US News.

Woo RIT!! I don't know whether to be happy or sad for you. On one hand it's a pretty good school, but on the other hand it can be a miserable atmosphere. The winter is brutal, and there's a lackof girls, (except there's more and more girls with each freshman class.. and the majority of the girls in the school are in buildin 7, where the New Media Major is)

Anyways, i think you'll have a good time if you're a cool guy... cool people always tend to seek each other out in a tech school...

So, any rochesterians got plans for the spring? Anyone livin' around Park ave and Culver?!

 

[kalster]

congrats man


do your best, 4 years (with or without chics) are going to be very exciting

give it your best and you should have a great career

WTF???? Harvey Mudd worse than Cal Poly and trailed by San Jose State? That's like comparing UC Berkeley to some Pheonix Online University.

This list is crap.
Harvey Mudd pwns all of the schools on the list thats for sure. San Jose state is a joke. Cal Poly is supposed to be pretty good, but not _that_ good.

 

[Zim Hosein]

Congrats PHiuR :beer:

I miss Rochester...

Oh well. Have fun pickin gup chicks in Marketplace Mall.

 

[Futher]

New Media Students have it made =) All my classes are filled with girls who have no clue what you're doing and practically beg for help... I'd say 1 out of every 10 are hot.

 

[suklee]

You *miss* Rochester? Fill me in on what you miss... the snow? I don't miss it one bit! I was glad to be out of that hole

1 out of every 10... thats not a very good ratio

 

[neutralizer]

Good job man. My college admissions haven't come in yet except a few.

I got denied early action Stanford and I got my UC Irvine admission yesterday.

RIT is not even on par with RPI.

[fyleow]

I keep thinking of Rensselaer everytime I see RIT for some reason...

So UIUC is a good school? I kept getting letters from them but threw them away
