<p>Hello All!</p>
<p>I currently live in Indiana and am attending Ivy Tech Community College. In May, I will graduate with my AS in Education. I want to go to a 4 year college and get my BS in Elementary Education. I am having a hard time deciding whether to stay in state and go to a college here or go out of state like I have been contemplating.</p>
<p>The school I am looking into here in Indiana is Ball State University. The other schools that I am looking into are in Texas. They are University of North Texas, University of Houston and University of Texas - Austin.</p>
<p>I know the most about Ball State because I am from here and have gone on tours and have talked to people that have gone there. But I have virtually nothing to go on for the schools in Texas. I guess I am asking for information on these schools more than anything. What are they like? The atmosphere? How are the schools with FinAid for out-of-state students? Are they a good school for Elementary Education? If none of these schools would be good for Elementary Education, do you have any suggestions of schools that are good for it? </p>
<p>Any help at all will be appreciated. Thank you!</p>
