Yeah so in about 2 years I plan on applying to colleges. Currently my top 2 are UOI and Georgia Tech. What college do you guys want to go to/goto already?
I want to go to OSU, but if i getinto a better college i cant go there.Wanting to be an enginer i want to go to MIT, Georgia Tech, or SDMSU
North Carolina all the way. No other school i would want to go to. The cons for me is that it has a 37% acceptance rate, and high act scores. Plus it would be an out of state college.
This thread really only applies to like 20% of BBW members lol. There are a lot of people 13-16 that have no idea.
I really want to go to ASU. I've been a Sun Devil fan since birth and I heard the partying is good there. :happy0144: If my grades are good enough to go to another college I might choose another, but I'm planning on getting a scholorship for ASU.
I'm currenty going to school there, they have one of the top 3 Criminal Justice programs in the country. The Secret Service and FBI train where I go to school. I turned down state schools because they didn't have as reputable a program.
I'm almost positive i will be going to a school in or near boston. I have it down to Boston University, Providence College, Northeastern, and a few others.
My biggest is Arizona. I want to mostly get out of California and I love Arizona. I saw the campus and loved it and I loved the look of the school. Also we have had a lot of family that attended UA and my great grandmothers uncle's family sold land to UA so we kind of have a history at that school. Also the fact that they have one of the best college basketball systems and coaches there is helps lol. Some of the other schools I have interest in are Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, Texas, Sand Diego State, ASU, or UC Davis. HAHA I'd also like UCLA if I was smart enough or gifted enough athleticly. BTW ArizonaFan do you really think your good enough for a scholarship or is that just one of your unlikely dreams like me wanting to play for UA lol. Nice to see though your a big UA fan streetshox. I think we might be the only two here lol
You guys are listing off some big colleges...I have a hard time believing most of you are going to these big/expensive state schools.

Only graduating seniors, people already in college, and possibly juniors really have a firm grip on where they're going to go. All the others don't have too much idea, because they don't know the expenses, SATs, what their parents want, etc. Quite a few are just listing off big NCAA tournament schools.
You can get a scholorship here with a 3.5 GPA and an Exceeds Expectations on AIMS, and you can take AIMS more than 5 times until you get it. streetshox and iversonfan... :no1:Oh an iversonfan, Emilio(Downtown), the guy I got on this site, he liked both UA and ASU. He went to UA but after like 1 semester he transferred to ASU because he didn't like it at all. Tucson is boring man. Everything happens in Tempe/Phoenix/Scottsdale.
here in Texas, you automatically have a spot in any college in the state if you graduate in the top 10% of your class. Of course you have to get accepted first but yeah...

I don't know what you mean by you have to get accepted. Public Texas colleges have to accept you if you're top 10%. Anyway, I didn't get in by top 10%... A&M automatically accepts those with a 1300+ on the SAT (when it was 1600 points total instead of 2400) and in the top 50%. Top 10% is good for some people, but not good overall for Texas.
