I'm starting to consider moving to Dallas to attend school. I've had a few of members of the Texas crowd try to get me to move down there in the last few months or so, but now I'm starting to think it's a good idea.
A bunch of you missed all the fun, but in a nutshell, I got divorced not too long ago and am back to trying to see what I want to be when I grow up. I think I want to go back to school for a Mech E degree and I have a "friend of a friend" who's a professor in Dallas (as is his wife). So, I'm starting to give this some thought. I'm guessing I'd be bringing the Camaro and the truck (need the truck to move and I can't afford to sell it, and the Camaro is paid for). Anything I need to know about considering a move to Dallas? |

There is plenty of work in DFW, and there are definately housing options in every income range.
If you want to go to school for ME in DFW, then the University of Texas at Arlington is the school for you. I don't know if UT Dallas offers comparable ME courses, but UTD does offer excellent EE courses. Those campuses are about a 35-minute drive apart. |
