he said he got "ok grades." Lehigh is a pretty tough school to get into.

Word of advice. DO NOT move to Binghamton if you have another option.

well if your in computer engineering you will need excellent grades. im in the computer engineering program and needed like a 3.25 to get into the engineering program.

if you didnt have the required grades you could take your first year of classes and then take some big test to try and get into engineering. but if you dont pass the test you just wasted a year trying to get into engineering.

NY: SUNY. simple. Where? Wherever.

VT: Go to Burlington. UVM or Champlain. About an hour from Stowe/Jay Peak, and the schools are good too.

MA/NH: Idk. Boston has shitloads of colleges.

If you're a skier, B-town is where you want to be.
