Need Help Picking Colleges That Will Accept Me

<p>I want to major in Biz Administration/management, and have no idea as to were to apply, any help would be appreciated. </p>

<p>Here are my stats, which as you can see are not the greatest.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.0 (85)
SATII:1630</p>

<p>Internship at Citigroup, turned into part-time after school (working there now)</p>

<p>And all my electives are business class's.</p>

<p>Also I am a hispanic with just one parent and not the greatest income.</p>

<p>What state do you live in? What kinds of schools are you interested in--approximate number of undergrads? What region of the country are you interested in? Are you interested in schools in your state?</p>

<p>I live in NYC and would prefer schools within driving distance (4 hours) from here but have no problem going further.</p>

<p>I would prefer a medium/large sized school.</p>

<p>BTW i wanna live on campus</p>

<p>Ne1? coooome on</p>

<p>hmm u could consider syracuse for a match and NYU for a reach since u wanna be close to home</p>

<p>try hofstra or temple</p>

<p>not NYU, its a little to expensive</p>

<p>also, if your not rich, a good route would be go to community college (or a SUNY or CUNY in the city) for 2 years and transfer</p>

<p>any more suggestions</p>

<p>Check out Fordham. Also University of Delaware, Providence College, Fairfield U, American. You could shoot higher if you are truly disadvantaged and first generation to college and you have taken a college oriented course schedule in high school.</p>

<p>What High School do you go to? What does your single parent do? Maybe you can play something off that.</p>

<p>If you like large universities, public universities are large and cheap, especially SUNYs and CUNYs. Binghamton has a business degree and it's the best SUNY in NY with Stonybrook following close behind.</p>

<p>Then there's St. John's, Fordham in the city and Rutgers in NJ which is like an hour away from NYC.</p>

<p>Also, what's your GPA out of? A 4.0?</p>

<p>Damaras:
1- My sister actually went to a com college for one semester and dropped out; would i still count as first gen?
2- My school is not the greatest and only offers AP English and AP Spanish;im taking AP english</p>

<p>Xeal:
1-I go to George Washington High School (Upper West Side Manhattan)
2-My mother is a home aid making $7 an hour (less then me)
3- My GPA is out of 4.0 i was told 85 was a 3.0; also although this does not sound great im still in top 15-20% of my school, and in tests (regents, psats, sats etc. im atleast top 10%)</p>

<p>look at URI</p>

<p>Its in Newark, NJ and has a good Bus Admin program. It also has the #1 ranked EOP (Engineering Opportunity Program) in the country. You'd qualify for a 4-year full tuition/dorm ride.</p>
