<p>Good evening everyone,</p>

<p>I'm currently in my second year of college and am going to take classes this spring at my local community college. Up until now, I was at a small liberal arts college majoring in Business Administration, and I have a ~2.6 GPA from there. I was on track with all of my courses and such, but decided that I was just not happy there with my overall "college experience". My thought is that I'm only going to have one shot at college, so I would like it to be something that I enjoy. I think what had me most unhappy was the social aspect, which was composed mostly of fraternities and sororities. If you weren't into that (which I was not/am not), you are pretty much out of luck. </p>

<p>I live in Illinois and am not sure what would be best for me as far as distance goes, therefore I have only applied to University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (interested in Supply Chain Management) and Auburn University (Supply Chain Management/Entrepreneurship). Both seem to be a place where I would have a better experience as well as get the education I'm looking for. However, I'd like to get another person's input on any other schools I should consider. I would prefer to either stay in Illinois/Indiana/Wisconsin, or go somewhere south in Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee or Kentucky. The reason for looking further away is that I would be less tempted to go home often due to the obvious long commute. Does anyone have any insight on any other schools that I should consider?</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>How is your financial situation?</p>

<p>You don’t want a big Greek scene. What do you want? How do you want to spend your free time? In a big city or the middle of nowhere?</p>

<p>Give us your ideal and then we can suggest places which closest match what you want.</p>

<p>Financially, anything at of below about 25k is doable. </p>

<p>I would like a place that has a wide variety of clubs and more interaction among students. The school that I am “taking a break” from did not have many clubs at all, and very VERY little interaction between students (unless of course you’re Greek). So in short, somewhere where a non-Greek will not feel like an alien and will hopefully have an easier time meeting and befriending people. I do not care about the setting as far as city or country.</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>
