Hello everyone,

I live in Allentown, PA. I am looking for colleges maybe in or near my area that is an engineering school that specailize for Environmental Engineering as a BS degree. Is there any schools like that in my area? I been trying to search by using Yahoo and Google search but I am getting schools that has everything like Arts, Drama and so on. I was looking for a school that is not hard to get into. I hear Penn State is near the top which is just about an IV League. There is no way I can get in. If I be accepted to PSU, I am not going, I rather go to Harvard or Princeton but I know I can't get in. They won't accept anyone that their GPA is not good. Thank you anyone.

Google "Environmental Engineering Pennsylvania". But be realistic; if your GPA is not so good, you're not going to get into a first tier school. Why not try a community college for two years, prove you can get As and Bs, save a ton of money, and then transfer to someplace like PSU?
 
Lehigh University in Bethlehem is an excellent college.
