[QUOTE=pixiesfanyo;16197849]its pretty hard to rationalize that you are an in-state resident if you are going to school.

like they have an issue with people solely taking advantage of the in-state residency bonus if they don't come and prove they aren't only becoming a resident to take advantage of that.[/QUOTE]

Well I plan to establish for real residency in the general geographical area once I graduate. My mom, uncle, and soon-to-be aunt will also be living somewhere in California, so I don't imagine having too difficult a time getting residency status. I mean, I'll live there in the summers too. I don't plan to come back to PA much.

Anxious 04-06-2008 01:16 PM

Rob, where do you go?

Robert Crumb 04-06-2008 01:18 PM

Penn State

dei 04-06-2008 01:27 PM

I got accepted into Harvard and Yale but I chose to go to community college because I wanted to join a gang.

really?

Jacaranda 04-06-2008 02:42 PM

ya imma go to humboldt
i think
now that i know santa cruz is way out of my league

perriwinkle 04-06-2008 02:42 PM

when i graduate i'm going to apply to like all of the UC's and like, Cal Poly and Cal Tech etc to get my masters in EE, theyre all such good engineering schools. and that's where i want to live after school, so it'd be good to plant my foundations out there, explore different areas to see where i'd wanna live, and get in an alumni network / start networking with d00dz

also because renewable energy research in the US is basically spear-headed by California / California schools, and that's the kind of work i want so its my LAND OF OPPORTUNITY

Anxious 04-06-2008 02:46 PM

Which Cal Poly?

poopie 04-06-2008 02:51 PM

preferably san luis obispo, even though that's pretty uhh... optimistic. i mean thats one of the best engineering schools in the world. does pomona have a good engineering program too?



edit: weeeird, i'm looking up rankings right now, and i don't see Cal Poly SLO anywhere..

but i remember at one point looking at rankings and seeing them in the top 5 for EE

what i do see consistently in the top ranks though is: Cal Tech, UC Berkeley, UCLA, USC, UCSB, UCSD, UC Davis, and UC Irvine

Anxious 04-06-2008 03:05 PM

I go to Pomona, and the Engineering is the pretty much the only thing worth going there for.

poopie 04-06-2008 03:08 PM

yeah like i will end up applying to about 10 schools (probably the ones i listed and then both Cal Poly's) and then just doing more research and deciding based on what comes back to me

i'm also thinking about applying as a transfer student at the end of this year just to see where i could actually get in at this point, even tho i have no intention of transferring

Anxious 04-06-2008 03:09 PM

Thats kinda ****ed cause you'll end up taking someone else's spot.

Glitterati 04-06-2008 06:56 PM

ITT Dominick is concerned with other's education.

Anxious 04-06-2008 06:58 PM

I'm concerned with justice!

Glitterati 04-06-2008 06:59 PM

Dominick you should become a lawyer like in A Time To Kill.

Failing that, dress up like Robin Hood.

Anxious 04-06-2008 07:02 PM

How about Mrs. Doubtfire?


Now theres a quality film.

Glitterati 04-06-2008 07:10 PM

I think it's clear Robin Williams' best film was Death To Smoochy.

Anxious 04-06-2008 07:15 PM

Hook.

Liebensaft 04-06-2008 07:16 PM

No love for Jumanji?

Glitterati 04-06-2008 07:16 PM

Bring Me Petah Pan

Anxious 04-06-2008 07:18 PM

Jumanji had siq computer animated wasps.

Eliminator 04-06-2008 07:19 PM

Zmev 04-06-2008 07:40 PM

Should I really throw $40+ for first ed copy of Fantasma with the headphones?

Liebensaft 04-06-2008 07:41 PM

Fantasma like the Cornelius album?

Zmev 04-06-2008 07:42 PM

Yeah

Eh, I just let it go. $43 for any cd + headphones is a bit much.

negrodamus 04-06-2008 08:37 PM

You're all wrong, William's best movie is Jack.

Zmev 04-06-2008 11:38 PM

Aladdin

pulseczar 04-06-2008 11:48 PM

obviously flubber is his best movie and also gave mankind the hope of one day being able to own magical gelatinous substances whilst partaking in wacky scientific hijinx

ATM 04-07-2008 12:09 AM

True that.

dei 04-07-2008 12:13 AM

Gelatinous.

[quote=Bukowski;16197042]Strathclyde is a really good uni, yeah. It would've been my firm choice had I got rejected by Glasgow uni. It's got a great reputation, but Glasgow's is marginally better. There's a 3rd Uni in Glasgow, the Caledonian, but that's by far lesser than Glasgow and Strathy - those are the big two.

I've got a number of friends studying there this year, and all of them are loving it and have only good things to say about their courses. I visited the campus a few times as well, and it's pretty top notch, and right in the centre of the city - so near everything you'll need (including the best record store ever, btw). And also, I've been to the student union quite a lot with friends, and I can tell you that it is fantastic. Lots going on, and a really nice place. Plus accommodation in Glasgow is relatively cheap compared to most other similarly sized cities in the UK, and if you were staying in student halls then there are plenty of good ones around the city, some owned by the Uni's themselves, others privately owned. Failing that, it's pretty easy to find flatmates to share with.

I would recommend it, it's a great uni and the city has lots of good stuff going on if you're over 18, which I'm fairly certain you are anyway. Great local music scene as well, with loads of nice smaller venues and whatnot.

If you're coming here, let me know! I'd love to do an exchange myself, but my course is havin' none of it.[/quote]

This sounds like exactly what I want, it sounds a lot better than the unis in the US that are offered. A really good music scene is pretty much a requirement, haha, I'm not going to go to Europe or the US and not take advantage of the cheap shows. If accommodation is cheap, that helps a lot too. And yeah, I'm 19 now and I'll be 20 or 21 when I go.

Tell me though, if I go to Glasgow, will people there beat me up for not being Scottish? My friend is convinced that they will.

Anus Invader 04-07-2008 02:57 AM

guys i just wrote and recorded a new song it's called Secret Penis

Neoteric 04-07-2008 03:51 AM

haha you won't get beaten up, as long as you stay away from rough spots of the city.

Well that seals the deal then.

Neoteric 04-07-2008 05:24 AM

Glasgow is pretty culturally diverse, so you should be fine.

br3ad_man 04-07-2008 05:35 AM

I think I should have been born in Scotland. I'm super white and I hate hot weather and I burn really easily.
