<p>Besides CSU Long Beach, would Northridge or East Bay be good choices? I hear a lot of things about Northridge that it's not a good school and it's ranked really low. But, can someone please explain why? What makes Long Beach any different besides it being in a good location? What about East Bay?</p>
<p>Personally, I know a friend who goes to Northridge for engineering and thinks its a good school. As well as Long Beach. Now as for the perceptions of everyone else with rankings on their minds, Northridge isn’t the school you want to go to if you want to do well with the employers when most engineering graduates in the state of California come from a Cal Poly school and is ranked better. </p>
<p>I have no idea about the health care administration at all of those schools. The negative perceptions come mostly from the student body because if you look at what is needed to get into the school, the average SAT’s, what people say about the school…it brings a school down if it isn’t good. But CSU Long Beach would be the best out of that bunch.</p>
<p>It’s all a competition these days for jobs. I don’t think the CSU Northridge graduate of Healthcare Admin would win over a UCLA graduate of healthcare admin. It might be a good program, i guess you could say. But there are better ones out there is most likely what I’m thinking.</p>
