<p>I'm interested in majoring in finance. I'm looking for a medium to large school with a suburban/urban setting. Thanks.</p>

<p>hey you were in pretty much the same situation i was last year.. im from ohio 1350 29 act 3.83 uw gpa ... yeah im now going into business at BU... def look into somewhere like Boston U... im really excited about going ... other schools:</p>

<p>Wake
Tufts ( econ)
Vandy ( econ)
BC
NYU Stern.. but your stats may be a bit too low
Umich.. hah but you might b a buckeyes fan like myself.. plus they dont give money outta state
Ohio State Honors.. Fisher is very solid
Case Western.. i really liked their business program</p>

<p>these are just a couple of suggestions... if it helps i applied to
BU, BC, Tufts, Vanderbilt, Ohio State, Case, Cornell AEM, and Johns
Hopkins</p>

<p>i got into BU Case and osu honors.. bu gave me a ton of money 35k grants... waitlisted at Cornell Vandy and BC... tufts and hopkins denied me... soo that may give you an idea</p>

<p>anyhow goodluck</p>

<p>1600 on a 2400 scale?</p>

<p>ah! my bad my bad, its 1360/1600....</p>

<p>USC, Texas, OSU, Indiana, Minnesota, Carnegie Mellon (if you can handle a very math based business program), Georgetown</p>

<p>Great, thanks. Any one else have a suggestion?</p>

<p>These are all good--you might want to also consider Virginia, Illinois, Penn State, and Wisconsin as matches, and maybe UC Berkeley as a slight reach. (although Illinois and Penn State are more rural locations).</p>

<p>You should consider McGill (Desautels Faculty of Management).McGill's student population is around 19000 (large) and their tuition is cheaper than any US university (~US$25k for internationals). You're right on their average applicant range. Also being from the US will help and McGill's in Montreal, which is just an amazing city.</p>

<p>I think magill is good too</p>

<p>Think Virginia is a possibility to get into? Even out of state?</p>

<p>Wisconsin-Madison. #12 according to US News for business + the mix of an urban/suburban feel</p>
