Veteran wanting to take summer classes

Parents Forum
1

<p>I just finished serving our country in Afghanistan. Now I want to take some classes, improve my GPA and get into one of the top universities for graduate study.</p>

<p>I am looking for a university that
1) has low summer tuition for non-residents (I am a resident of Alaska, so chances are I will likely be a nonresident whichever university you recommend)
2) is a university that is either an elite research university or has a very highly respected brand name.</p>

<p>Any suggestions? Thank you!!!!!</p>

<p>Veteranr,
Thanks for serving, we all are endebted.
We can probably help more if you say where you live now and where you might be considered a state resident… also, what you intend to study.<br>
Without more info, I do know that the UW in Seattle opens up lots of classes to Non-enrolled students as space allows in the summer.</p>

<p>I am willing to move anywhere. I just got back after a longish stint and don’t have a home. My legal residence is Alaska but I want to move out of Alaska. So anywhere is fine as long as the university

  1. has low summer tuition for nonresidents
  2. is a university that is either an elite research university or has a very highly respected brand name.</p>

<p>And I eventually intend to pursue a Ph.D. in Biochemistry.</p>

<p>Classes are $252/credit for state residents.</p>

<p>Top students do matriculate into top programs.</p>

<p>There are many colleges that offer in-state tuition rates to veterans (OH being one state).
