NYC, DC, or LA?

<p>USC Marshall vs Georgetown McDonough vs NYU Stern</p>

<p>Hi, I'm a recent international who just received very exciting letters from USC, Georgetown, and NYU. Since I'm graduating from a US high school, I'm really interested in which college would be a good fit for me. Money and location would not be huge problems for me. The so called "college experience" and future earning potential would be more of my focus.</p>

<p>I'll be majoring in finance, and I know that according to the rankings, I should head off to the big apple. But one thing that stifles me is that the networking and internship opportunities would be available for only the domestic US kids. This is the biggest reason that I'm weary of Stern other than the 'curve' and the dearth of school spirit in NYU.</p>

<p>USC, with all its school spirit and Trojan family thing does not sound bad at all. I especially like the atmosphere of SoCal. I heard they also encourage double majoring, and I might double finance up with accounting in case if I think IB is not for me. The 5 year accounting track that gets you the masters doesn't sound half as bad.</p>

<p>As for Georgetown, its a great mix between NYU and USC. McDonough is a very good business school, and although grossly under-ranked, places well on the street. I'm just a little worried if McDonough's accounting degree might place well with the big four.</p>

<p>I don't know. So guys, any opinions?</p>

<p>PS: BTW I wonder if US companies are willing to hire some of us international kids and give us H1B visas or if they would prefer to relocate us to their international locations?</p>

<p>This is a hard one. I would say in this order, based on what info. you’ve given:</p>

<ol>
<li>NYU</li>
<li>Georgetown</li>
<li>USC</li>
</ol>

<p>Hope you get some more responses!</p>

<p>All amazing schools but I would probably opt for NYU if business is what you want to major in. </p>

<p>Good luck. USC also has a very solid business school and GU is no pushover either.</p>
