“I transferred in from a two year school toMar 04 2003Business - Management and Administration
I transferred in from a two year school to save money. I had to work very hard to get in to RPI but it was worth it. The hard work is really starting to pay off. For example, despite the lackluster economy, I am still getting many interviews for internships and I really have no worries about finding a job when I graduate because RPI students are still in high demand, no matter how bad the economy. In fact, I feel getting an education at RPI really pays off more when the economy is bad because it gives you that added advantage over other applicants. So work as hard as it takes, I promise it would be worth it.
