<p>Hello folks. I just need a favour about these two schools and possibly how I can get some scholarships or grants as am an out of states student.</p>

<p>First and foremost, I have been accepted in both schools but my concern is where placement is better after graduation, and which of these two schools has the most reputation or the most oil companies fund?</p>

<p>One other issue that I have is that. I have already graduated with my first degree in health sciences where I was accepted into a pharmacy school. Upon my research on the pharmacy job market and the debt am bound to incur, I changed my mind and considered PE. With that said, would you suggest I go straight to the graduate PE program or do a second bachelor in PE?</p>

<p>I felt the prospects are better as I can see and I hope it stay like it is for the next ten years.</p>

<p>Finally. As always is the case. My tuition is going to be my problem as am out of state student. Kindly help with resources where I can get help with PE student scholarships or grants to help me off-set some of these fees.</p>

<p>Thank you in advance</p>

<p>Whether you can go into a graduate petroleum engineering program depends on your previous undergraduate study… although if your undergraduate degree is in a related engineering major, you may find oil company recruiting without needing to do graduate study.</p>

<p>But note that some jobs at oil companies can mean living in places with extreme weather, isolation from everything but the job (including offshore oil rigs), foreign countries with political violence or heavy religious social restrictions, etc…</p>
