That’s true about internship possibilities. UNR would be good for that as well. Reno is home to Microsoft operations, Patagonia, and other companies. It’s also great if your son skis. Some of the Tahoe ski resorts are just up the road.
I personally don’t love the casino area of Reno but other parts are very beautiful with views to the mountains.
Thank you!!
@PacificNW5 Arizona gives some decent out of state merit scholarships, even though they aren’t WUE.

Thank you! I was just looking into Arizona schools for merits, thanks
Arizona and ASU both come to mind. They have great business programs in major cities, which provide a lot of internships. Also, UNLV is the top ranked hospitality management program in the nation, and internship opportunities are HUGE, because it’s in Las Vegas.
@coolguy40 – ASU is not part of WUE, with the exception of a few majors. Mining Engineering is the only major at U of A that is part of WUE.
@coolguy40 ASU and Arizona give merit awards but won’t offer WUE for business majors. NAU would.
