Location/Region: I'm in NJ. East coast/Midwest urban/suburban schools are preferred

Major: Probably in Chemical engineering/materials engineering

GPA/Test Scores: 4.6W/3.95UW, 1560 SAT (780 both)

Curriculum: I want to be able to make friends with people who aren't in engineering while also having engineering friends. Really want to continue robotics, EMS, and tennis (intramural or club). Relatively accessible research/internship opportunities would be nice as well

Size: semi-medium (on the small side) class size and overall school preferred (like 10-15k)

Costs: Nothing crazy expensive pls

Current list: GT, Cornell, WashU, JHU, Stevens, Cooper Union, NW, purdue, umich, UIUC, CMU (I have a list of safeties elsewhere but ngl need to find more targets)

Additional: I work a summer job in NYC that I would really like to continue. It's seasonal from 8/18-9/7 (8/18-8/30 is mandatory). A schedule that accommodates this doesn't trump other aspects of the school but would be awesome (worst case scenario my younger sister tries out for it and I work vicariously lmao).

Thanks!

yale is good for being able to make non-engineering friends while also making engineering friends because of no undergraduate schools

#

Sorry just to clarify i meant I needed to find better matches when I said "I need to find more targets". My list is looking kinda unrealistic or not the best fitting rn. Uiuc's pretty big but GT size is nice according to ppl who've known me for a while and have been to gt, haven't been there myself tho
