Which SCHOOL do I CHOOSE????

Transfer Students
1

<p>I am a junior level transfer and here are my options with the costs of tuition after deducting grants and scholarships (not including loans, room and board, books, etc.) I am majoring in business with a concentration in finance and probably international business. I may double major with economics. Please help with any advice at all..</p>

<p>University of Miami - $14,000/year</p>

<p>Monmouth University (NJ) - $2,000/year</p>

<p>(Room and board seems to be more expensive at Monmouth)</p>

<p>Is UM worth the extra money?</p>

<p>Umiami Duh</p>

3

<p>The rest of the costs are all going to be loans.. still UM?
I've heard mixed things about UM.. how good a school is it?</p>

4

<p>be lucky its 14k and not 55k :x</p>

<p>UM is #49 on 08 undergrad bschool for businessweek too
MiamiU is #24 tho</p>

5

<p>The costs i put are only tuition, which is normally 35k.. im looking at about 25k/year in loans at um.. im just worried about being in debt for the rest of my life..</p>

6

<p>any1 else have an opinion?</p>

<p>UM for sure. it sucks to be in debt but you can go farther with a UM degree than with one from monmouth....</p>

<p>You might want to message burgler09? He goes to Miami and he's probably be a good person to talk to about the pros and cons of it?</p>

<p>I don't know if he's willing to talk but you can try??</p>

<p>monmouth is bad. really bad. i would rate it as a 4-year community college. </p>

<p>in the us news 2008 ranking, umiami is ranked above george washingon university, pepperdine, and boston university. </p>

<p>i think it's pretty clear which one is more academically respected.</p>
