College Search & Selection

<p>Which want to choose 1-2 more colleges to apply to for regular decision and it came down to these. I want to major in business and my stats are around 3.2uw gpa and 2000 sat (retaking dec).</p>

<li>Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute </li>
<li>Washington University</li>
<li>Syracuse University</li>
<li>Drexel University</li>
<li>George Washington University</li>
</ol>

<p>Anyone know how the business programs in these schools are? And which ones would be safeties, matches, or reaches for me? Tyvm this is kinda urgent!</p>

<p>Syracuse -Whitman School of Business: depending on rigor of your HS, low reach; maybe a high match.....SAT's good/UW GPA a little low..... </p>

<p>Wash U: high reach
GWU: reach (unless you are applying EDII-then high match)</p>

<p>Not sure about the others......</p>

3

<p>^ how are GWU and syracuse for business? and of the two which is better?</p>

4

<p>well that's a tough q: Whitman has an amazing alumni network (as does all of Syracuse), a new building, and strong majors.</p>

<p>GW has Wash DC and many connections there.....</p>

<p>If you are applying RD, why don't you try both and see what happens?</p>

<p>Also, do you already have your safeties?</p>

5

<p>^ yeah, i think i can apply to both, but which of the two is better?</p>

6

<p>Which schools are you applying to already for sure? That would help us see what you are looking for better in terms of environment and whether you need more reaches, matches or safeties. The five you have above have VERY different admissions standards and environments, so it is hard to evaluate your question as is.</p>

7

<p>Well I'd like an environment that's near a city (definitely not suburban). Nice undergraduate business programs I guess...some of the schools I've applied to are UMich, NYU, Indiana University, Virginia</p>

<p>I already got 2 safeties, so I'm looking for some matches-reaches (which consists of most of my schools)</p>

8

<p>Northeastern U? DePaul U.? I don't think you'll get into Wash. U, RPI, or GWU with your grades. Anybody disagree?</p>

9

<p>From what I've heard, prob not Wash U. What did you get in each section of the SAT?</p>
