Members lolque? Posted May 22, 2011 Members Share Posted May 22, 2011 Roger Williams University, Electrical Engineering class of '14. Since I have my loans are atrocious, I'm looking at enlisting in the Army as MOS 15f or 15j and doing the loan repayment plan (which covers up to $65,000). If I like it, I'll stay in and see what I can do about gettin my masters. When I get out, hopefully I could work for Boeing or Sikorsky. If I don't go that route, I'll be looking at Raytheon and the like right out of undergrad, but that probably won't happen . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Andmoreagain Posted May 22, 2011 Members Share Posted May 22, 2011 UMass Amherst class of 2011. Journalism. I'm staying in Amherst for the summer doing some copy-writing and freelance type work, as well as tutoring students in lovely Sprinfield. After this I'm going the ESL route for a year, both to save some money for the job search, and to see some other parts of the world. After that I will go where the jobs are. Roger Williams University, Electrical Engineering class of '14. Since I have my loans are atrocious, I'm looking at enlisting in the Army as MOS 15f or 15j and doing the loan repayment plan (which covers up to $65,000).

If I don't go that route, I'll be looking at Raytheon and the like right out of undergrad, but that probably won't happen . Does Roger Williams have an exceptional electrical engineering program? I know that in many regards it's considered a mediocre school (no offense meant), and you could save a lot of money by transferring in state, unless of course you have substantial scholarships. I'm sure UMass has a good program, it is one of the bigger research institutions in the country after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members arcaneaether Posted May 22, 2011 Members Share Posted May 22, 2011 I'm at Keele University, on the outskirts of lovely Stoke-on-Trent. I started out doing a foundation year in physics, then moved onto a single honours Music Technology course (which I've just finished and am currently awaiting the results for), and will proceed to do a MRes in Music next year here at Keele - as the years have gone on, I've switched from loving contemporary/popular music to mainly art/classical music. Just one of those things really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members brandnewzo Posted May 22, 2011 Members Share Posted May 22, 2011 University of Wyoming. I declared a major in jouralism, then changed that to music, then changed that to graphic design. Then I dropped out of school. I clearly had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members lolque? Posted May 22, 2011 Members Share Posted May 22, 2011 Yea RWU has a reputation as a backup school in Highschool. I got in but I didn't like the vibe I was getting and ended up going to URI for a a year ( ) before transferring to UMass. Meh, a lot of the rep it gets isn't actually true, just like a lot of colleges. Entry is easy, but graduating as anything other than a business or art major is difficult. I will say that I hate the social environment here, so I can understand your bad vibes. Too many snobs from CT . As an EE student though, I rarely go outside, so it's not like it matters.
