<p>I am going to be applying as a transfer, but I don't know a lot of good schools for marketing and business that are not ivy league. Any help would be appreciated!</p>
<p>Some great business schools that are not Ivies (and by the way, the only Ivy with a “real” undergrad business school is Penn) include:</p>
<p>Boston College
NYU
MIT
Carnegie Mellon
Lehigh
Georgetown
UVA
Michigan</p>
<p>In no particular order.</p>
<p>Carnegie Mellon</p>
<p>Would recommend Ortsac’s list. I would also add USC.</p>
<p>OP, what can your family afford? As a xfer student you won’t really get any merit at most schools.</p>
<p>I graduated in 2012, but couldnt get a loan due to lack of credit history and no cosigner. I continued working to save up money, but also took a general ed class at a local community college to not get out of going to school. I can afford most colleges, but would rather not spend an arm and a leg when I can get a decent education for less, and have less debt. I just do not see that paying around $30,000-$40,000 for just tuition is worth it since there are cheaper colleges, but that is where I am having trouble.</p>
<p>I have been looking at NYU and Michigan both, but thanks for the others. Will definitely look into. :)</p>
<p>NYU and UMich will both be $55K+ for an OOS student. You graduated in 2012 but couldn’t get a school loan and now you can afford most colleges? Hit the lottery?</p>
<p>What state are you in? Your instate public will be your most affordable. Going to a private or an OOS public will likely cost you $40-55k per YEAR.</p>
<p>How much can you pay EACH year without debt?</p>
<p>also Fordham, Bentley</p>
<p>I couldn’t get a loan due to lack of credit history and my parents couldn’t cosign because they already have 4 vehicle loans. With the scholarships I received due to my gpa, it brought the cost down to around $20,000. We could afford to pay the majority of it throughout the year, but not all. My parents make quite a bit, combined of around $100,000. However, we have 2 houses because my mom is self employed and works out of one. That means that even though they make quite a bit, the finances are tied up in different things. It’s really complicated. </p>
<p>I live in Indiana. We could probably afford around $10,000 without any drastic changes, and my credit has been built up now to take out a loan if necessary. I just don’t want to take one out for the price of the entire school, especially if it is like $40,000-$50,000. </p>
<p>Thanks for all help! It is a rather weird/unique situation.</p>
<p>Well, since you live in Indiana, apply to IU…very good B school. No need to spend lots of money to go elsewhere.</p>
<p>Even with a good credit rating now, that doesn’t mean that you’d qualify for private student loans unless you have the INCOME to back up those loans. And, even if you did get a loan for the FIRST year, your credit would then take a big hit, and you might not qualify for the next year. </p>
<p>Avoid debt that doesn’t involve regular federal student loans. As a junior, you can borrow $7500.</p>
<p>Kelley is a great business school instate!</p>
<p>IU no doubt!!</p>
