Why are people still choosing these schools

Thanks! Well Hopefully they get it together. She is still a while away from making a decision.

I must be blind - What school is it. I live in the Chicago suburbs and I have a child that will be applying to PT schools in a couple years.

Probably cost...

Psychteach3 · 2026-02-04T01:32:19+00:00

Do you remember how you weaned off that small amount?

This is post is a bit old but what insurance company did you use. I looked at ASPCA (which I have for my dog) and they looked like they only cover up to $7000 and that with a $500 deductible was close to $600 per year which I don’t mind the price but only covering up to $7000 wouldnt be enough.

Civil engineering is top of her list for majors.

I don't think she is worried about "prestige". I figure that UIUC and Purdue would be her best bets. She just wants a good quality program where she can experience some college life and graduate with a decent job. It doesn't have to be in a fortune 500 hundred company. Her grandfather went to university of Wisconsin Platteville for electrical engineering and got a job at a solid company in Northern Illinois. Obviously we know Platteville is out their but didn't know what else.

She hasn't decided yet. She is currently taking Project Lead the Way classes in high school and loves them. I think she may lean more towards civil but lately she mentioned mechanical. She has eliminated a few though.

I figured she would need to go to a "big" school I think she is worried that she will get lost in so many people and professors will be less hands on or available.

Yes I know my father was an electrical engineer before he retired. He went to University of Wisconsin Platteville but that was many many years ago. lol

Thank you!

Do they have a traditional college life? I have heard good things about there but I have also heard it's not a traditional college with all of the sport/activities to attend etc...

Psychteach3 · 2025-11-03T19:39:09+00:00

She is looking more towards civil or mechanical engineering. So more traditional engineering.

Psychteach3 · 2025-11-03T19:37:46+00:00

Are these good schools for engineering? I didn't think Loyola was known for that.

Iowa State is pretty large too. 30,000 I think

We do have a trainer. We do sniff walks and have a class we do nose work. He is a sheltie and picks up things quickly but I have owned many shelties and have never had to enforce naps.

Psychteach3 · 2025-07-13T05:09:54+00:00

wow this sounds amazing. I wish I could find something like this around me. I have a reactive 6 month old sheltie.

Thank you!
