<p>You keep saying that schools don’t have any majors “that you’re interested in.” What do you want to major in, exactly? UW is a great school and has like a hundred majors. Are there seriously none that interest you out of this list?</p>
<p>[UW</a> Advising - List of Majors](<a href=“http://www.washington.edu/uaa/advising/majors/majoff.php]UW”>http://www.washington.edu/uaa/advising/majors/majoff.php)</p>
<p>OP - Are you sure all of those schools are without interesting majors? What about interesting departments? A self designed major is one possible option Most universities (for instance UW) offer this option. It may not be your first/best option but it may be something you want to consider if you end up at a school without a set major.</p>
<p>I looked more into Evergreen anyway and the more I find out, the less appealing it is anyway.</p>
<p>annasdad: Good to know, I suppose. I was always told that more selective colleges looked better than ones that are easier to get into in the “real world”.</p>
<p>SgtDonut: Well, the names are different depending where the college is, but here are some majors/minors that I like…
Majors:
Marketing communications (specialization in entertainment marketing)
Music industry
Arts and entertainment management
Performing arts management
Communications w/ a specialization in advertising management
Arts management
Arts administration
Marketing (without required calculus only)</p>
<p>Minors:
Business/business administration/business management
Marketing
Fashion merchandising
Communications
Arts administration
Audio production
Entrepreneurship</p>
<p>Hopefully that gives an idea. It’s hard to explain kind of… If I really had to, I could probably find something at UW but there’s nothing in particular that grabs my attention really.</p>
<p>nybmc: They may have interesting departments, I’ll look into it…</p>
<p>Thanks everyone for all of the help so far. My apologies for being such a hassle.</p>
<p>So, I got news that I passed my AP statistics exam, which bumps my grade to an A for the class. That means that my cumulative GPA is bumped up to approximately a 3.8 and I am now definitely in the top 10th of my class. I don’t know exact numbers yet, but yeah! Now I just have to do good my senior year (especially first semester) and improve my SAT scores/try the ACT and I may have some new opportunities!</p>
<p>Random question: I know you can double major at some colleges, but is there a limit on minors usually? Can you only do one minor at most places? Or only 2? Or is there usually a limit at all?</p>
<p>I agree that NYU is a reach school for you but the poster that said no one gets in if they have under a 2100 and 4.0. That is completely untrue.</p>
<p>I started looking at Rhode Island colleges and found three that interest me. Here they are in order of how much I like them based on what I’ve researched so far. Anything other info would be awesome!</p>
<ol>
<li><p>Johnson & Wales University (Providence, RI campus): I’m loving it as far as majors, clubs, location, etc. go, and apparently they have good academic scholarships and stuff. Plus, the application is free apparently! </p></li>
<li><p>Roger Williams University: I like the majors, and apparently they have some good academic scholarships as well. They seem to have good clubs and events (I just read that they had Third Eye Blind play… that is AMAZING). The location seems gorgeous. </p></li>
<li><p>Bryant University: A few alright majors, decent clubs and events, scholarships, etc.</p></li>
</ol>
<p>Seriously, any info at all… Since I’m in Washington state, I can’t visit any of these colleges on the east coast that I like, so really, anything helps.</p>
<p>Well, as a current high school student myself, looking for colleges just as you are, I find that we are both picky! Since most of your choices are on the East Coast, I’ll only suggest colleges worth looking at. The following colleges I suggest you consider include: Drexel University (Philadelphia, PA), Temple University (Philadelphia, PA), CUNY Brooklyn College (Brooklyn, NY), CUNY Hunter (NYC), American University(D.C), St. John’s University(NYC), Northeastern U(Boston), Stony Brook University - SUNY (Long Island, NY - close to NYC) </p>
<p>----------- As for financial aid, I’m not too informed as to how well these colleges are concerning that matter. However, these are great, well-known schools that have good overall academic programs and overall atmosphere. I’m pretty sure some of the schools I suggested include the major(s) you wish to study in the future. Hope I helped ! </p>
<p>P.S – I live in New York, so I do have quite a bit of knowledge about all of these schools. If you have any questions, just ask. Good Luck !</p>
<p>PA is probably my last pick state out of the states I’d consider going to on the east coast though. The thing with CUNY Brooklyn, CUNY Hunter, and SUNY Stony Brook is the low amount of out of state students (If I remember correctly, these are all 95%+ in state schools.). This rises the question of: why do these schools not attract out of state students? Plus, going to a college that is 99% in-state when you’re coming from across the country may make it more difficult to “fit-in”, so to speak. As far as American U, D.C. isn’t a place I really want to go, haha. And NEU is already on my list 
(although, it is a reach). </p>
<p>Thanks for the suggestions though, seriously!</p>
<p>One of the reasons why the CUNYs and Stony Brook have few OOS students is the cost of housing. I’m not sure how much help you get with finding it either.</p>

<p>I attended Roger Williams for a year and, while I enjoyed the party experience very much, I found some of the students and academics to be very dissatisfying. If you are academically inclined (which, judging by your list of schools, you seem to be), you won’t be in the majority, as many of the kids see the schools as a “place to get a degree” rather than a place to grow as a thinker. Also, if you’re an open-minded individual or someone who enjoys intellectual discussion, you won’t find it at RWU. It is certainly a great institution for some, but I found it to be a bit too easy…and, considering your 3.76 GPA, I think you can do better.</p>
<p>And @Allie23: Apparently I stood “no chance in hell” of getting into NYU but was still accepted with a 1990 SAT and 3.7 college GPA (not to mention a 3.4 HS GPA)? Alas, I’m not going due to poor finaid, but I certainly think you should be more realistic in your assessment.</p>
<p>That being said, I think NYU, Skidmore, and Northeastern (another place I was accepted as a transfer to) are much more tailored towards what you seem to be interested in, as well as what kind of student you are. Good luck!</p>
<p>You should look into UA (Alabama) for OOS Scholarships. Great Honors program and full tuition scholarship if you get you SAT up to 1400 or 32 ACT… 2/3 tuition for 1330 SAT/ 30 ACT.</p>
