<p>hey all,
i am majoring in accounts - future CPA fingers crossed, and i have to give a decision to one of the three Unis - USC UIUC or BU</p>

<p>Frankly, i simply fell in love with the BU campus and Bu itself when i appplied, and it has certian tie ups with Harvard</p>

<p>USC is a great choice with a balance of social life combined with a fairly high ranked accounting program, </p>

<p>UIUC (uni of illinois urbana champaign) has the best accounting program in the nation, and is realtively cheaper.</p>

<p>All opinions are welcome and will be of much help ....
p.s. was wondering which has a better study abroad program or any other similar opportunities </p>

<p>thnx</p>

<p>Hi bigmik- </p>

<p>I am a civil/environmental engineering student at USC so I can’t speak for the Marshall School of Business but I do know a bit about study abroad programs at USC (I can’t compare them to any other university though). Each year we have a study abroad fair on campus so students can explore their options. When trying to decide about studying abroad, definitely ask those giving any presentations you may see. </p>

<p>This is the website for those offered through the College of Letters, Arts and Sciences
[USC</a> Office of Overseas Studies](<a href=“http://www.usc.edu/schools/college/overseas/]USC”>http://www.usc.edu/schools/college/overseas/)</p>

<p>I know my friends participated in a program through Marshall where they went to Asia during the summer (I believe, it may have been over a break). There is also Global Fellows at USC where students can get international internships on the Asian continent and work there during the summer. </p>

<p>This is the Marshall School of Business’s Overseas Site: [USC</a> Marshall International Opportunities](<a href=“http://www.marshall.usc.edu/undergradprograms/international/iec/international-opportunities.htm]USC”>http://www.marshall.usc.edu/undergradprograms/international/iec/international-opportunities.htm)</p>

<p>And this is Global Fellows: [USC</a> Career Planning and Placement Center](<a href=“http://careers.usc.edu/students/internships/usc-global-fellows-internship-program/]USC”>http://careers.usc.edu/students/internships/usc-global-fellows-internship-program/)</p>

<p>In terms of deciding where to go- follow your gut. You will know which school is right for you.</p>

<p>Good luck!</p>
