uf vs usf vs fsu vs ucf vs fiu

<p>hey,
i am a florida resident for tution purposes, i want to make a career in international business or economics. i applied as a freshmen in uf and got rejected :(. i think because i was a international student. but i got into usf and fiu. i await a reply from fsu and ucf. i am very excited as i hear that fiu has a better business program than uf and also that usf is not that bad..... plz help me out of this confusion</p>

<p>hey guys… if you are reading this plz post a reply…i will really appreciate it</p>

<p>I’m not really sure what exactly you’re asking or what the confusion is, but this is what the FIU website says:
Top national rankings—unparalleled in Florida</p>

<p>U.S. News & World Report ranks us among the top international business schools in the U.S. for international business.</p>

<pre><code>* In top 15 for undergraduates (2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011)

  • In top 25 for graduate programs and 4th best among one-year International MBA programs (2011)
    </code></pre>

<p>I think that USF is more well-known in my area, but FIU is just as fine, I’m sure. Of course, UF and FSU are the flagships.</p>

<p>hey thanks flfriend
UF and FSU are the old universities (since 1853) thus they are bound to have good rankings. Over the years i see UF and FSU rankings falling , while that of usf , ucf and fiu are on a steady rise. Also what i have heard is that Uf is more of a party school. So Over all for an international business major fiu, ucf ,usf ,uf or fsu?</p>

<p>Oh ok! Well, I know of two people who majored in International Business, one went to FIU and the other went to UF. The one who went to UF is currently working at a hotel dealing with international bookings, whereas the FIU grad is working at Ernst & Young , one of the “Big Five”, as an international market analyst. In my opinion, that seems more prestigious, not that anything is wrong with hotel clerks, but the FIU grad seems to have a more pertinent job. UCF only has an “International Studies” major, which isn’t exactly International Business. I hope this helps! :)</p>

<p>yes thanx a lot. and what about business majors in fsu and usf?</p>
