<p>Magnetron basically told you to stay out of Western Texas. It is poor, rural and desolate. Not an enjoyable part of America.</p>
<p>University of Georgia is a great school.</p>
<p>Ah okay understandable thanks. And regarding Ohio University: Compared to Phillips U Marburg, is it better or not?</p>
<p>I don’t know a lot about the particulars of Philipps U, but I was using it as an example of a good regional university located in Germany, not one of the tippy-top level ones. I could have picked Nurnberg or Giessen. That is roughly the level you are talking about with most of the choices available to you as an international with a 3.56 GPA. Ohio U would be about the same academically, in a worse city than Marburg (sorry Athens), and way more expensive for you.</p>
<p>Your dream is 4 years in a friendly American city on a beach (heck, mine too). West Texas does not even remotely resemble that dream.</p>
<p>True, but not necessarily on the beach, if it’s a good city :).</p>
<p>With the German Abitur I could even go to the University of Munich for Business Administration. NC is 2,8 (GPA: 3.33). But Munich is one of the cities I don’t like. Plus, I truly don’t feel well here in Germany. Many (older) people treat me and other people with a non-german origin different and so many people are cold.
Okay, I’ll look for the other colleges and tell you. This is a great forum with good help.</p>
<p>Okay, so I’ve looked for these colleges and I am not happy with them, because they have a religious affliation. They also don’t offer this much scholarships.
I am looking for San Diego State University right now and I will search for some other universities.
Is SDSU worth the CoA of 35,000$?</p>
