Look, the truth is that you probably won't have "fun" in the traditional college sense here. There won't be crazy drunken nights that you don't remember. There won't be random hookups (unless you're a girl, then maybe). If you are part of the party scene, you will find yourself failing out. Fast.

However, why are you coming to college in the first place? If it's to park yourself for 4 years and to have a good time, choose a state university. If it's to get a strong education, then this is the place. You will work, HARD. You will have more than one night where sleep is not an option. You will learn that humans really only need 1.5 hours of sleep and that at some point, coffee stops working.

At the end of it all you can take a deep breath and say "I did it!" Every employer I've interviewed with in my 8 years post-graduation has raised their eyebrows and said, "Wow, you went to RPI? You must be smart!" I have never had trouble finding a job, even in a tight economy. Neither have any of my college friends.

If you are serious about your career and your education, come here. The struggle will be well worth it in the end.
