Urban schools with strong Arabic and IR programs?

College Search & Selection
1

<p>I'm looking for mid-large sized universities in or near a big city with strong programs in Arabic and international relations. I'd also rather be on the East Coast or California. I'm applying to McGill, GWU, and American, but I need to consider some more realistic options. I'm Hispanic and have about a 3.1 UW and a 28 ACT. I'd appreciate any recommendations that I could consider a match or safety with these stats. Thanks.</p>

<p>I don’t really want to go to school in the midwest and OOS tuition is pretty expensive.</p>

<p>Brandeis
Boston University
SUNY Binghamton (not urban)</p>

And the schools you quoted (McGill, GWU, and American) aren’t? What is your home state? What can your family afford?</p>

<p>GWU and American are about 50 grand each so most oos publics would be cheaper unless you get significant aid or scholarship. I would suggest you take a look at Pitt as a match if you raise your gpa.</p>
