<p>I thik you are making one mistake, often the schools with the most vibrant social scenes actually arent the biggest or near cities. I do think UCLA sounds perfect for you though.</p>

3

<p>University of Miami</p>

4

<p>I would say that if you're looking for parties, you're looking for a state university.</p>

<p>Check this:

<p>Oh yes... I'd like to mention that I go to the University of Texas (listed number one, and definitely agree)</p>

5

<p>Southern Methodist (SMU) Dallas. Good Business school, thriving sunbelt city, very social.</p>

<p>How's the rainy season this year? I have a condo at Store Bay.</p>

6

<p>Tulane definitely</p>

7

<p>Maybe NYU..</p>

8

<p>Can you share your stats with us? It would help us narrow down the list.</p>

9

<p>UCSB & UCR, the party schools of the UC's</p>

10

<p>USC, perhaps.</p>

11

<p>Entrepreneurship (where business is definitely thriving) + Big City + Vibrant Social Scene = USC. </p>

<p>I honestly cannot think of a school with a better mix of the three stipulations you mentioned, nor one that excels in them as much. US News ranks USC Marshall Entrepreneurship at #3 (after Babson and Wharton), and another thread mentions USC's social scene: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=77085%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/showthread.php?t=77085&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Hard to tell if you are looking for a program or a party!! If you are looking for a program then look at Bentley....it is basically in Boston......</p>

13

<p>USC man, go there</p>

14

<p>San Diego State University in California has an excellent entrepreneurship program in their business school. Very, very social school as well in a beautiful city. Reasonable cost,even for internationals.</p>

<p>I'd also suggest you check out: Rollins College, Stetson University and the University of Miami in Florida.</p>

15

<p>I second Tulane</p>

16

<p>Penn is called the social Ivy- but it's hard to recommend schools without knowing what kind of student you are.</p>

17

<p>I wouldnt state that Rollins College is a party school or near the beach (its about an hours drive if you have a car). Stetson is in DeLand which rolls up at night. Id suggest Univ. Of Central Florida as they do trips to the beach and Disney World. If you want a beach school check out Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton</p>

<p>I think you'll find its size more to your liking than Babson's...about 4000 full-time undergrad students. <a href="http://www.bentley.edu/tech_learning/labs/index.cfm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.bentley.edu/tech_learning/labs/index.cfm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>I'll agree with USC, especially for an international, I think it will appeal to you much more than your other options.</p>
