<p>I'm having a really hard time shortening this list and ultimately making a decision but I only have about a week left to do so. I plan on majoring in bioengineering and possibly double-major (unlikely) or minor in some business-related field so I'm looking for a school that has both a very strong engineering program and business program.</p>
<p>I'm aware JHU has one of the best BME programs in the nations but unfortunately I didn't get into that program, but they do have a Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering major that is quite similar, just not as focused on medicine (or so I've heard).</p>
<p>USC is the only one giving me money as I'm an international student, but that really isn't too big of a deciding factor for me. Otherwise, I like that they have a good engineering and business department. I've visited and really love the Cali weather as I'm from the New England area.</p>
<p>I've walked around the UCLA campus, but not a formal tour. The campus and surrounding areas seem nice, but I don't really know too much other than they have a pretty good engineering department but no undergraduate business major (though there is economics). </p>
<p>I didn't really like the initial feel of CMU's campus and Pittsburgh as a whole, but it might just have been a bad first impression. As for academics, the engineering school forces those who want to do bioengineering to double major with a more traditional field of engineering, which might not leave room for a minor or (eek) third major in business. The quality of their engineering and business programs is very good though.</p>
<p>After college I'm planning on either doing something in the biotech industry or going full-out into business or finance or consulting and the like. Any input or advice would be appreciated, thanks.</p>
