CAL State, ASU, or Ohio State...for Kinesiology

College Search & Selection
1

<p>Background: 23 years old, currently serving in the United States Marine Corps, with 11 months left on contract. California resident.</p>

<p>So a while back, I was researching schools for Kinesiology. My top pick is USC, but that is a reach for me, so my fall backs are:</p>

<p>CAL State
ASU
Ohio State</p>

<p>The reason I picked those three is they all have a good athletic department, and also have a good Kinesiology program. The reason I care about a good athletic department is I may be able to intern and/or get some real on hands experience, that would help me in my career. I also plan to minor in Nutrition or Chemistry (most likely nutrition).</p>

<p>Also, would it be worth going to ASU or Ohio State and pay the out of state tutition, or can I get just as good of an education/experience from a CAL State? I dont mind going out of state, or staying in California, I just want the best education and experience.</p>

<p>Do check out ASU, it’s a veteran friendly campus and I would encourage you to contact the Pat Tillman Foundation with an eye to becoming a Pat Tillman military scholar. It might help with your tuition.
