Communications Schools

<p>I'm currently a sophomore at Syracuse University. I'm interested in Communications, specifically Public Relations.
I had a good high school record: too many EC's to list, but include Class VP, Editor-in-Chief of school newspaper, etc. A GPA of about 3.5, A's and B's, graduated with honors. My ACT scores don't really represent my academic abilities... I got a 26, but simply don't test well on standardized tests.</p>

<p>At SU: I have about a 3.4, Renee Crowne Honors Program, A's and B's, member of TV organization Promotions Dept. doing PR.
I'm thinking about the following schools: USCali, BU, Elon, but also thinking about W&M, UVA, & UNC for non-communications schools (arts & science programs). Idealy, I would like to stay in the Northeast or on the East Coast. Any other ideas? And what do you think my chances are for these schools?</p>

<p>I'm not happy with the social life. It's very cliquey and greek oriented. People are mostly from New York (specifically Long Island) and New Jersey-- I'm from the North Shore in MA so it's not really what I'm used to or enjoy being around.</p>
