ØMy
brother went here
ØMy
dad wouldn’t pay more than NJIT
•NJIT has a great reputation in Chem Eng and still has very
good facilities.
• I knew I wouldn’t do as well if I lived away from
home.The only other school I applied
for was Rutgers Engineering in New Brunswick.
• My entrepreneurial tendencies started early.I started a door to door sales business
during my junior year of HS.I liked
the money and didn’t want to lose my customers during the school year.
•Family history. I also had an uncle and three
brothers-in-law graduate from here.
• My father had a very good business mind.He was willing to pay so much for my
education and not endanger his retirement.I also didn’t want to be paying off a school debt.Debt is bad.
