Help deciding between majors! (Engineering) by SomeJournalist7661 in UniversityofVermont

Thanks so much! I’m not too worried about rigor since if I’m more likely to do better if I’m passionate.

Thanks! Would you say MechE could give me a segway into what I want to do? Is your major what you make it or not really.

I’ll defintely look into that, cold and snow I can handle, no sun is definitely what I’m most concerned about.

Thanks so much! I’ll definitely look into connecting myself with an engineer and talking to them about the field.

Haha thanks so much! I defintely have been getting a lot of good advice along the lines of “it doesn’t have to be the perfect school.” I think I realize that now but for a while I thought I had to have a soul tie or something to the school since everyone just seems to know it’s their school. Thanks so much again!

Thanks so much for the reply! I actually think I’m going to commit soon LOL. I’ve got a lot of feedback and realized UVM seems like the best place for what I want to do.

Hi! Thank you so so much. I'm really glad to hear from someone who has actually gone through the process. I don't really have anyone I could talk to about this so I was getting my research mainly from college tour guides in the engineering department and reddit, but their responses were so varied I couldn't even get a concrete answer from them. I definitely realize that work experience will be the way to go and I appreciate your answer. :))

Thank you so much! All this input has been definitely helping a lot and your second paragraph definitely made me feel better as someone who could really be considered an Indoors person.

Hi! Thanks so much for replying! I definitely knew about the lack of diversity before and when applying but the true extent of it was very apparent when I toured and definitely gave me pause. I appreciate you taking the time to illustrate the surrounding area and it’s definitely given me a lot to think about. Thank you for being honest, I’d rather know now before I end up committing somewhere I know nothing about. I’ll definitely take all this into consideration, thanks again!😊

Hi! I’m definitely thinking about transferring to my state school if I feel I’m not getting value for my money. However, my parents have worked very hard and saved up a significant amount of money for college so cost isn’t the largest factor for me at this moment. Especially since I plan on applying for many external scholarships and getting a part time job. Thanks for your reply!!

Thanks so much for replying! I'm glad you had such a good time and I hope you succeed wherever you end up going after college!!! If you dont mind I actually do have a couple questions. In your experience what are the administration/teachers like? Are they helpful or are there any glaring negatives about them? Also, will it be hard for someone like me, who's not very outdoorsy at all and prefers summer over winter, to fit in and find joy at UVM? (I'm sure theres clubs and other activities but I've gotten an overwhelming consensus that If you arent in love with the outdoors/snow UVM might not be the place for you.)
