<p>^^^copied from Chances i'm so sorry if it reads weird</p>

<p>i live in Michigan so definatly applying Umich and MSU but i;m looking for some other colleges. i planning on studying finance so i'm definatly looking for a school that has a good business school and engineering school because i might also study engineering and/or minor in asian studies. i don't mind if the school is private or public, just a place where i can spend 4 years having a great time and learn something. not picky about location, some where is on the east coast is fine...mid atlantic and anything near michigan would be awesome.</p>

<p>thank you very much</p>

<p>bumpppppppp</p>

6

<p>Ohio State</p>

7

<p>Second the Ohio State rec: strong engineering college, strong business school and one of the federal government's dozen or so designated "Comprehensive National Resource Centers" in East Asian studies.</p>

<p>Your stats put you right around the middle of the last couple of freshmen classes, so you'll probably get in and might get a little bit of merit aid. Good academic-social balance. Close to Michigan.</p>

8

<p>Wisconsin-madison also comes to mind</p>

9
