Help choosing between 3 college options?

College Search & Selection
1

Helllo! I’m a Maryland transfer student at a community college with a 4.0 GPA. I’m looking to pursue a degree in animal behavior/zoo science and have narrowed it down to 3 colleges. I’m looking for some opinions on a few factors of these schools. 1. Reputation 2. Education Quality 3. Social life (this factors in because I get so homesick I need to stay involved and busy to keep it away!). These are the things I’m most concerned with but overall advice and opinions on these schools are very welcome!

Saint Francis University in Pennsylvania
Wilson College in Pennsylvania
Or Towson University in Maryland

Also, if you happen to know of any other schools in the mid-atlantic region offering animal behavior/ethology, zoology, or zoo science, please let me know!

Thank you!

With a 4.0, you should have lots of possibilities!
Look into Cornell CALS, Bucknell, SUNY ESF, Penn State UP, UMD College Park, Clarkson, Franklin&Marshall, Fordham, Dickinson, Lafayette, Hamilton, Haverford, JHU, Marist, Lehigh…
Check out their major’s offerings (often, animal science/ethology will be a concentration within a major, and you do want a strong background in biology), and prepare to apply widely because financial aid consideration are likely to come into play too.
