<p>o LOL i meant i dont know to tripperians post LOl sorry for the misunderstanding</p>
<p>I turned down Arizona Oregon Santa Clara, and Virginia Tech</p>
<p>turned down purdue and thats it. I got rejected from all my other schools.</p>
<p>Turned down Villanova, Boston University, Northeastern, Penn State, and Fordham University.</p>
<p>A2wolves, miami and wisconsin gave you almost 30K/year and michigan didnt take you? that doesn't make sense</p>
<p>Thats not how much they were gonna give him, thats how much it was going to cost if he went there.</p>
<p>A2Wolves6, my son did the exact same thing you did--he started by taking the USNW ratings and throwing out all the weird stuff--like alumni donation rates, graduation actual rates vs projected rates, etc--and this moved schools like Purdue and Indiana from 60 and 74th places up to 39th and 43th place--and schools like Oregon from 115th to 72nd, and moved Bentley from the master's list to 62nd on the national list. Then he said he would consider only colleges with undergraduate business schools in the top 75-80 on USNW.</p>
<p>Then, he ruled out super expensive schools or ones expecting large tuition increases--like Babson, USC, Texas, Colorado and Boston University. Then he ruled out any Univ of Calif that didn't have a real undergraduate business school and didn't rank above 75--so that was everybody but UC Berkeley. Then he ruled out schools that didn't allow direct admit to the business program--out went UC Berkeley, Michigan, Washington, and Illinois. Then he ruled out schools he thought he had no chance at--namely MIT, Penn, and North Carolina. Lastly, he ruled out Penn State because its in the middle of nowhere--and Florida because its too much of a jock school.</p>
<p>That left the following schools that he applied to: Indiana, Purdue, Pitt, Bentley, Oregon, (all accepted), Fordham (waitlisted), and NYU--rejected. After visiting all the schools where he was accepted, he chose Indiana.</p>
<p>P.S. If you want a weird mascot, consider UC Santa Cruz--their mascot is the banana slug.</p>
<p>so, u shud chek out UCSD's mascot, triton? man what a loser god, couldnt make the cut ruling the skies with zeus so hes in the ocean hiding like a panzy, psh what a freak... dude and chek out stanfords mascot..............................
