<p>Well Im going to be a junior this year and I'm curious if anyone can recommend some colleges that meet some of my requirements. (I live in Texas by the way)
* Lots of outdoor activities(Beaches, Lakes, Rivers or Mountains)
* Under 34k a year(Room and board included)
* Good Reputation
* Good Business program
* Near a good sized city or college town (75,000+ Population)
* Not to difficult to get into
-Right now I'm very interested in any business majors, Economics and Political Science</p>
<p>Looking forward to seeing what schools you suggest!</p>
<p>I’m sure that tons of people you know will go there, and you might not like the idea of staying in state, but UT Austin is reeeeeally nice. Without financial aid or scholarships of some kind you’re probably not going to go a whole lot of places for 34k other than an in-state public. If I still lived in Texas it wouldn’t even be a competition; I might not even bother filling out any applications other than UT.</p>
<p>Clemson is in a really good location for outdoor activities (mountains, forests), but you probably would have to pay more than 34,000 if you don’t qualify for FA or win a scholarship.</p>
