If your child is interested in engineering, then I have great news for you. Engineering has fabulous scholarships right now! There are MANY colleges that offer great engineering scholarships, that aren’t related to other merit scholarships based on the SAT, and they aren’t related to need-based scholarships based on your income. These engineering scholarship are ON TOP OF the others.
One reason is the additional attention that recent disasters have brought on the subject of infrastructure. Most of our nations bridges, roads, power systems, dams, etc. are getting quite old. As a nation, we need to ensure we have the technical capability to keep our infrastructure safe. Engineers are vital to that effort.

Great point! My husband is an engineer and his lifelong dream is for both of his children to follow in his footsteps. (Although, I don’t know if I could handle a family gathering with “3″ engineers!! LOL!)
