Which are great schools?

<p>Hey guys, I am looking to transfer this up coming semester. I have a 3.6 at the University of Puget Sound, a small liberal arts school in Washington.</p>

<p>I am looking for the follow things from a school...</p>

<p>allows out-of-state students (I am a Oregon resident)</p>

<p>low out of state tuition costs</p>

<p>Great business school</p>

<p>In a urban area, (I want to do a internship at a investment bank or something while I am in school)</p>

<p>let me know. thanks!</p>

<p>Except for the urban area part, UNC sounds like a match.</p>

<p>low out of state tuition costs, urban area, AND a good business program? good luck with that.</p>

<p>the closest you are going to get to that is NYU Stern and that certainly does NOT carry a low tuition cost</p>

<p>yeah right now I am looking at ASU because it has a good undergraduate business program and its relatively low cost. Its really hard to get the best of both worlds, or best of all worlds in this case... Im just looking to see if anyone has good words of advice especially in the east coast because USNEWS and stat sheets only say so much. Again thanks for all your advice guys</p>

<p>University of Hawaii is very chep out of state (compared to other schools) and its in Honolulu which is urban for sure. Also, their buisness program is really good but mainly for areas like hotel management and tourism (well...it is hawaii, lol). I don't think areas like finance etc are super strong but any buisness related to the tourist industry and/or property management is actually highly ranked.</p>

<p>east coast? sk1.. if you're not looking at the elite business programs, here are some suggestions. also, there aren't much schools with an urban campus, but there are tons that are relatively close to the city with a short commute.</p>

<p>some suggestions with good business programs and value:
- rutgers university (close to nyc)
- fordham university (close to nyc)
- villanova university (close to philadelphia)
- cuny baruch (in nyc)</p>

<p>thanks for the info!</p>

<p>fordham is private though, i dont think that would be cheap at all</p>

<p>villanova is private as well. try the university of pittsburgh. i just transferred from there to ND. i think it has a decent bus. program. it's not too expensive out-of-state. i think around 14,000. and it's a pretty respectable school in general.</p>

<p>villanova is VERY generous with their aid. most of the students that attend have families with incomes well over 130k+. so for the students that aren't as well-off, they offer tons of aid.</p>

<p>BYU</p>

<p>$3600 per semester
