Major: Electrical Engineering (This Major's Salary over time)
As a transfer student, I was not out of the house on my own for the first time, so I was looking for 1. Quality of Education, 2. Accredited Engineering and 3. Campus fun factor. I surf and snowboard alot, and I was challenged with the upper division coursework. Good engineering resources and labs in the new building(s). I met some lifelong friends while in SC. I graduated in 06, I make over $100K with a big company in LA.
