Rather odd question on my part, but what the hell. I'm 17 heading off to college next year. I don't really want to go to tech school(though UTI crossed my mind). So college is my only bet. Brookdale Community college is by me, but I'm not too sure how extensive their "Engine performance" department is. I'll probably go and check it out in the next couple weeks, but I was just seeing if there are any other colleges for tuning/engine programming(am looking to go into Computer science also...have a basis in Java) in the area, or anywhere really.  Thanks

have you actually checked out UTI? if not you should. its a great school, im there right now. but if the rep tries to get you to take diesal dont do it unless you really want to. its not neccessary. we could always use more cegers in chicago.
if you have any questions feel free to ask
isnt that right stebe

i have a few friends that went to NADC and they said it sucked horribly. they wished they had gone to either UTI or Wyotech, Wyotech has a campus in Penn just outside Pitsburgh.

Ditto, I'm at the Phoenix Location right now and I love it, so far all my teachers have been awesome and really knowledgable, athough I'm only a few phases into it. I can't wait to do the more indepth stuff.
Like stiker said just becareful of what the rep's tell you, most of them are working for a commision.Don't take diesel if you don't want it(alot of kids I started with have dropped it because thier rep's talked them into it),the ford FACT program is supposedlyreally good(I'll have to wait to find out).
UTI does have a great relationship with alot of the manufacturers, to train on their vehicles after you complete the regular courses.
And if this is the route you choose to go, lock it in as soon as possible as the the cost is steadily increasing.

My brother goes to Wyotech in Pennsylvania. He says the school is great, top quality instruction. However, the location and the people suck (No offense to anyone from PA).
