Hello! I’m in the middle of applying to colleges and also searching for more at the same time, below I have my stats and schools I’m looking into, have been accepted/applied, etc. please make any feasible recommendations on schools with good business programs.
Arizona resident (possibly WUE eligible depending on school and major)
3.342 UW 4.0 W GPAs (this is my big killer for me)
Rank 43/411
AP/Honors course load
ACT - 27 SAT - 1310 two times, 1300 one time
Very strong ECs, 3 years in DECA, 2 as an executive chapter officer (1 as CFO, this year as President) accompanied by 3 years of the marketing class (marketing instructor/DECA advisor is usually a recommender)
2 years in Link Crew (freshman transition program)
1 year in JSA (Junior State of America)
Above average work experience
2 10-week internships at my city hall in the finance department (usually one of my recommendations)
Currently working at Fry’s for 4 months as a bagger
I’ve applied to all my in-state schools (ASU, NAU, U of A, GCU) and have been accepted with varying scholarships
Also looking to apply to NYU (notoriously bad at giving merit/financial aid), Northeastern (I think this school is a bit of a reach but I’m trying), and searching for more strong business programs as well! ASU is definitely one of my top contenders and I’m also applying to Barrett over there, but if I were accepted to Northeastern, ASU would actually be more expensive. Thank you in advance, feel free to ask questions to gain more info if you need more stats.
