Northeastern is my number one but I have to wait until April.

Right now it's between Drexel and Emerson though. I'm so undecided but, I guess I have until April before I make any desicions.

Right now it's between PSU, Pitt, and Drexel. I have to wait till like March to hear from Boston University and Syracuse though. I think ultimately it will be Drexel.

i got accepted to my one fallback school and my one fall back school put me on a waiting list. Ultimately even if i did get into an ivy league im not that type of a person, the kids who go there just don't seem carefree enough and i'd probbaly go insne. Drexel is hard but not uber hard and the co-op is perfect since im not 100% sure about exactly what i want to do. Also, the co-op if i can will help me to get into microsoft or Nintendo (i'm certain i can do microsoft but unsure about nitendo) so thats also a major plus being able to get my foor in the door. So yeah, I'm 100% certain i will be going here.

Hi Everyone, I hope you don't mind me eavesdropping. :)

But I would like to add that Drexel offers a Cooperative education, "co-op," that allows you to work full-time at a company that is related to your major. This would allow you to build up your resume before you graduate! This would put you ahead of graduates at other universities. Drexel operates one of the largest cooperative education programs in the nation (in students placed annually). Over 1,500 business, industrial, governmental and other institutions located in 27 states and 12 foreign countries cooperate with Drexel in offering students the opportunity to acquire major related experience. I would also like to add that most "co-ops" offer a salary.
If you would like more information, you can visit the following link: http://www.drexel.edu/about/glance.aspx

Good luck on your decision everyone!

Sincerely,

I am really undecided right now, I got accepted to Messiah, Drexel, and Ursinus. I still have to visit Drexel, but i really like the co-op.

Lol, ursinus was a fall back school for me and put me on a waiting list >.< i think i was over qualified :lol:

Messiah i was also thinking about but, i really enjoy my r rated movies and games, ntm they're kind of lacking in the computer science area.

I applied to Boston University, the University of Rochester, University of Texas, and Harvard. I don't expect to get into Harvard, but it would be awesome. I have to wait until March to find out on all of them. Drexel is the only school I have heard back from.
