<p>Can you please tell me the prestigious universities strong in business, which will accept B student if he or she pays cost fully, please list the universities that are VERY eager to recruit international students who can pay a large/full share of their way. </p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Good reputations and accept a high % of applicants: Penn State, Case Western Reserve, Wisconsin, Syracuse, Miami U (Ohio), Purdue, Iowa, Minnesota, Indiana.</p>
<p>smaller ones?</p>
<p>thank you for the suggestions, please suggest small/medium colleges (1000-10000) that are VERY eager to recruit INTERNATIONAL students WHO CAN pay a large/full share of their way.</p>
<p>Take a look at the international students forum. Grinnell and Carleton are pretty popular in that forum, but I don't know about their business programs.</p>
<p>Case Western Reserve and Syracuse are a lot smaller than the others I listed in post #2. Other smallish schools: Bucknell, Villanova, Santa Clara, Babson, Bentley, Vermont, New Hampshire, Providence, American U., U of Miami (Florida), Southern Methodist U., Marquette.</p>
<p>Don't bother investigating Grinnell or Carleton. They aren't likely to accept an applicant with only a B average.</p>
<p>In addition to being tough to get into, Grinnell and Carlton don't have business.</p>
<p>Lehigh in Pennsylvania has a decent B school.</p>
<p>boston u., usc, vanderbilt, wake forest and lehigh</p>
<p>Thank you for suggestions, I really like Lehigh but will they consider applicant who has 3.1 GPA?
Plus I am the member of national team in swimming, so which schools can you suggest where my status as a national team member can be the advantage for me. </p>
<p>Thank you</p>
<p>National team in swimming is a huge factor in your favor...as long as the country isn't like San Marino or Andorra. Being a superb competitive swimmer with your academic qualifications will allow you to get in places that otherwise wouldn't accept you. Very good small/medium-sized colleges with business: Georgetown, Boston College, Wake Forest, Lehigh, Notre Dame, Vanderbilt, Bucknell, Tulane, William and Mary, Santa Clara, Villanova, Southern Methodist U, Texas Christian U, U of Miami (Florida).</p>
<p>Boston U and USC would be good but they are bigger than you said you want (each has around 17,000 undergrads).</p>
<p>You should also send an email to the swimming coach if you are interested in a particular college.</p>
<p>Oh I always wanted to ask this question. If I don't want to be in college's swimming team for the first year (I think it will disturb my academic goals, which will be harder to achieve during my first year, because I will study in totally unfamiliar atmosphere) will it cause problems when I arrive at college and notify them about my decision? And taking my decision into consideration, would you still recommend me to contact swimming team coach? </p>
<p>Thank you</p>
<p>Georgetown
Boston College
Wake Forest
Lehigh
Notre Dame
Bucknell
William and Mary
Villanova</p>
<p>And can you please tell me which institution is LEAST selective. ( I know that all are very selective) and accepts more internationals?</p>
<p>None of those schools are likely to accept a "B" student. You definitely are an interesting case. You're looking for small schools (so rule out Publics) that have a good business program, that are willing to accept a B student. The problem is, Private schools, generally speaking, have harder admission standards, because they have less spaces! </p>
<p>Before I suggest some schools, what exactly is your GPA and test scores, and would you be willing to attend a school with a religious affiliation (I'm assuming yes, otherwise Georgetown and Notre Dame wouldn't be up there).</p>
<p>If he's a top-notch swimmer, all of those would be within reach. Also keep in mind that a "B" student in some foreign countries might be better or worse than a "B" student in the US. I'd definitely contact the swimming coach and tell him/her the truth about what you expect to do regarding the swim team. Even if you don't swim on the college's swim team, being a national-team swimmer is a very good extra-curricular activity.</p>
<p>Notre Dame, Boston College, Villanova, and Georgetown are all Catholic schools, but the degree to which their affiliation will affect you is minimal. All have lots of non-Catholic students.</p>
<p>I'm Christian, but orthodox Christian not Catholic. I don’t have any problems with affiliation, unless university has such a strict rules like Pepperdine University.
A2Wolves6. I know that these schools are unrealistic for me; I already have my college list, which doesn’t include institutions like these, I just want to try my fortune by applying in one of them. As I already said I’m the member of national swimming team, plus I pay full amount of college cost, I have quite good extracurricular activities (for example: assistant manager in one of the leading furniture store) my school is one of the most if not the most competitive in the country. I really had terrible freshmen year, mainly C-. But than I made big progress. From my school Harvard accepted two students from the class which consisted of 25 students. Others also where accepted two very prestigious colleges. Including Lehigh, Connecticut college, Washington university, Simmons and etc. I Know one of them (who was accepted in Harvard, and her Sat score was 1700 (reading, math, writing).
As for my scores, I don’t know them yet. November 28th is the date when they will be available. My GPA for freshman, sophomore and junior years is 3.1. my first term senior grades are straight A’s. So GPA will increase.
Please tell me which schools from the list are LEAST selective</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
<p>"Others also where accepted two very prestigious colleges. Including Lehigh, Connecticut college, Washington university, Simmons and etc."</p>
<p>???</p>
<p>DOLO, I'd suggest that you take a step backward here and think about your objectives and how to achieve them. There are thousands of colleges and universities in America and many are interested in attracting students that pay fullfare no matter what their nationality. So how do you find the one that suits you?</p>
<p>First, what is your country and ethnic group? Many colleges, especially smaller ones that are not located in urban centers, use internationals to increase their diversity percentages. If you are not White and come from a country that most Americans couldn't find on the map, your chances may increase -- especially if you can pay.</p>
<p>Second, are you only looking for colleges that offer business degrees or would you settle for economics or math or international relations? Many of the schools that have been recommended don't offer a major in business, though it's not uncommon for their graduates to go on to business careers.</p>
<p>Third, do you have any geographic preferences? Would you consider a small rural college even if means that the major ethnic diversity is YOU?</p>
<p>Fourth, your question about being recruited for your sport then not participating after you matriculate is a tough one. Unless you're on an athletic scholarship you wouldn't be asked to leave if you dropped out of your sport, but it does seem a bit dubious ethically to go into the process with this in mind.</p>
<p>Fifth, Are you male or female? I'm guessing male but if female don't eliminate all women's colleges.</p>
<p>Momrath. </p>
<p>1 I’m form Georgia (country) I’m sure that most Americans couldn't find my country on the map. I’m white, Caucasian (by primary meaning of this word, because The Caucasus is the region located between black and Caspian sees, Georgia is on of the three countries of Caucasian region, it is located south to Caucasian mountains). </p>
<p>2 yes I’m looking for colleges that offer business degrees
3 I don’t have any geographic preferences
4 I don’t say anywhere on my application that I will continue swimming in the college, so why is it “dubious ethically”? I can’t understand it?
5 I’m male</p>
