[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Any engineers have suggestions for collaborative engineering programs that are not as difficult to get into as Olin? TIA[/quote]

Purdue and University of Delaware[/quote]
Thanks! Purdue is a surprise. Anyone have more info on this. How does the engineering compare with IU Bloomington?

[/quote]

Purdue is a top-ranking engineering program, even though it is relatively easy to get into.  IU doesn't even compare for engineering -- it looks like they just started their program last year.  [/quote]

This is true, but for OP question, it should be noted that Purdue engineering is also famously difficult. Not the place for a kid who is not completely dedicated. [/quote]
Not OP, but my question was about collaborative engineering programs. It sounds like that is NOT Purdue. Olin, which is highly selective, has a collaborative  structure and students are hands-on in labs from the first year. Finding it very difficult to identify other collaborative programs and have done many on-line searches. When I ask, people often respond with the name of a "good" engineering program, but not necessarily a project based collaborative program. Still looking.[/quote]

Purdue is definitely collaborative if you look at the spectrum of engineering schools.  They talk about opening on during their on campus meet and greets. Olin is very small and very different from almost all other programs.  You will not find a similar one- perhaps Pratt- but that is also competitive. [/quote]
