Hotel School List, Need Revision and Advice

College Search & Selection
1

<p>I'm a junior, and I am interested in the Hospitality major.</p>

<p>My list of colleges I will probably be applying to/working on over the summer:</p>

<p>my gpa ranges from 3.0-3.5 depending on how i do this semester
My first SAT score was 1980.</p>

<p>Reach:
NYU
Boston U
Penn State - University Park</p>

<p>Good Fit:
University of Nevada - Las Vegas
Purdue
Michigan State U (Some say it's a safety for me)
Univ. of Wisc. - Stout ( I hear Mariott recruits a lot from here? )</p>

<p>Safety:
Cal Poly Pomona
U of Houston</p>

<p>I had Ecole Hoteliere de Lausanne in mind, but I read their age requirements and I don't fit. I gradaute at age 17, and I enter college at age 17 (assuming my college life starts on Sept. '07) And I will be 17 until Dec. of '07. Sadly EHL requires that I be 18 by the time their program starts..... Anyone know any other good abroad Hotel Programs I might even have a 1% chacne at . Or even here in the states! Thanks!</p>

<p>Cornell wouldn't be unreasonable if you get your SAT up a bit more. I'd add that too :)</p>

3

<p>OSU offers a good hospitality major; they even own their own hotel that parents stay in which is student-run.</p>

4

<p>Oops; I made a mistake. OSU's hospitality is more grad than undergrad. sorry.</p>

5

<p>In my opinion, and maybe this is only because I'm a local, but I think UNLV could very easily be a safety. There are quite a few people who get into UNLV with less than a 3.0 GPA.</p>

6

<p>I'm not sure, but doesn't Boston College offer a hospitality major?</p>

7

<p>Hmmm.. Boston College...? and yeah UNLV coudl sure be a safety but then again I am out of state so it might be alittle tougher for me to get intO?</p>

8

<p>Penn State is no reach for you...even out-of-state. BU is only a slight reach.</p>

9

<p>apply to Cornell...they have the best in the country</p>

10

<p>Cornell's tough, and this guy needs a higher GPA and SATs in order to have a shot.</p>

11

<p>yeah i purposely took out Cornell because Cornell u eitehr need average gpa/sat with HELLA LOT OF experience or HIGH GPA/SAT</p>

12

<p>If you don't mind me asking, why a hospitality major? You don't need to answer if you do indeed mind.</p>

13

<p>mainly to get into the ohtel management and tourism management career field</p>

14

<p>a friend of mine (non legacy, non urm) got into hotel with 2010 and 3.6uw...so its definitely possible with low scores.</p>

15

<p>Univ. of Wisc. - Stout is a safety</p>
