<p>Hi Guyz,
I need urgent help about selecting my university. First of all I am not that much smart to apply in Dartmouth or something like that. I have got I-20(acceptance) form Iowa State university and SUNY buffalo. In both cases I have got admission from Business School and buffalo also offered me 2500$ for each year. Now guyz which one I should select?.confused
Before posting any comments I should draw your attention on some facts
1) In US news ranking Iowa State is 81 whereas Buffalo is 120
2) I first chose buffalo but I came to know that their engineering is very good. But don?t have any idea about their business school, although Wall Street ranked Buffalo among top 50, this ranking is not reliable like US news
3)Both Universities have very good endowment but Iowa state seems to me pretty much favorable for giving scholarship to international students than Buffalo, they use to give up to 9000$ for each year while Buffalo use to give 2500$
4) In the tab ?service and facilities? of Us news ranking, there is a point titling ?companies who frequently hire graduates?. In case of Iowa State I didn?t find much renown business firms, but Buffalo have handful business firms like Bank of America, HSBC, Chase Bank, UPS, DHL ,Fleet Bank ,Citigroup and so on?it seems to me that buffalo?s alumni is better than Iowa State.
So my fellow American friends what do you think? I also must say buffalo is cheaper only 13000$ whereas Iowa state?s tuition is 16000+$ for each year.
Waiting for your replies??.</p>
<p>What's your intended major? If you are undecided, go to UB. UB is the flagship campus of SUNY and attracts a fair number of top NY students. It is also very well recruited because the top quartile of its class. On the other hand, UB definitely beats ISU in the winter weather column. ;)</p>
<p>My recommendation is to look up local alums in your country and talk to them. Ask the admission office for contact info. Put in differently, don't choose your college based on some meaningless numbers from US News.</p>
