(I’m guessing you are from texas)</p>

<p>What can you afford? Are you looking for West Coast schools or East Coast schools? Public or private?</p>

<p>drake university has a lot to offer in business and it is a really great all around school.
(if you are not afraid of cold winters)</p>

<p>Ocelite’s question about affordability is important. UMich, GT, Penn State and Illinois are OOS public Us which won’t offer any aid.</p>

<p>Bentley? Bryant?</p>

<p>USNWR #14 Undergraduate Business School (Fisher) located in #15 Largest City (Columbus) in the Nation + National Buckeye Scholarship for OOS Students = The Ohio State University @ Columbus, which is located roughly half-way between Chicago and New York City!! </p>

<p>Strong job placement throughout the Midwest and the East Coast with over half-million global living alumni connection!! lol</p>

<p>Best of Luck & Go Bucks!! :)</p>

<p>A 3.9/5.2 UW/W GPA is not top 10%? You’re either at a very competitive school or one with unrealistic grade inflation.</p>

<p>Normally, with the quality of UT-Austin’s BSchool I’d say it would be hard to justify going anywhere else given the cost jump. But being outside the top 8% makes UTAustin an unlikely admit - though i find that difficult to say given your profile, (You need some advice from your GC on this). </p>

<p>I agree with the first 5 of barrk123’s list along with:</p>

<p>Indiana (probably a pre-admit to the BSchool as well as an automatic scholarship, maybe as much as $11K/yr) [Automatic</a> Academic Scholarships: Office of Scholarships: Indiana University Bloomington](<a href=“Future Scholars: Office of Scholarships: Indiana University Bloomington”>Future Scholars: Office of Scholarships: Indiana University Bloomington)</p>

<p>You may also want to look at the many other posts similar to yours. This question gets asked a lot.</p>

<p>Money is not an issue. Also yes I go to a very competitive scholl of only 112 people I estimate im in the top 12-13%. The reason im not top 10 is because I took a couple high school classes in middle school and got B’s in them. Thanks for the replies.</p>

<p>“3.9 Unweighted
ACT-31”</p>

<p>It is absolutely ridiculous that someone with stats like these is not accepted to UTA because of some stupid rule.</p>

<p>^ Tell that to the TX legislature.</p>

<p>IN addition to baark’s list you can consider:
NYU
Notre Dame
UVa
Cornell
Emory
WashU(St. Louis)
Tulane
Fordham</p>

<p>And just so you know at UMichigan, most applicants do not get into the b-school directly - you have to apply after freshman year which makes it a bit of a risk.</p>

<p>Don’t worry he will be replaced by someone with a 2.9 gpa and a 20 act because that person went to a horrible school where a 3.2 gets you val</p>

<p>How about [Elgin</a> business college](<a href=“http://www.csinow.edu/]Elgin”>http://www.csinow.edu/) ?</p>
