Which school in PA should I consider?

<p>I will be transferring my credits. My major is Human Resource Management.</p>

<p>I was considering Villanova for my Undergrad and Grad School, does anyone else has any recommendations?</p>

<p>Why PA?</p>

<p>Where are you transferring from?</p>

<p>How much can you pay?</p>

<p>Why do you want to do both degrees at the same place?</p>

<p>Run any of the college-matching search engines for your major, and see what comes up. CollegeNavigator finds 29 colleges and universities in PA that offer a major in Human Resources. Villanova is not on the list.

<p>^I live in PA…I will be applying for Financial Aid. I thought villanova is a good university. I was hoping going to temple but i don’t like the fact professor don’t help the students.</p>

<p>Have you run the Net Price Calculator on the school’s web site to see how much your family will be expected to pay?</p>

<p>Whether professors help their students is more a function of their individual personalities and philosophies of education than it is of the college/university itself. Check for comments about the instructors for the specific courses that you would be taking. They might not be as bad as the professors you’ve heard about from other people.</p>

<p>happy momo what school of business do you recommend for Human Resource Management and Risk Management & Insurance.</p>

<p>Where are you transferring from? What do your professors there suggest?</p>

<p>If you are at a CC, stop by the Transfer Advisor’s office, and get some help with this.</p>

<p>my professors said Villanova,universiy of Pittsburg, Penn State, West Chester. But one said Villanova is not worth,temple is good compare to villanova.</p>

<p>Which CC is better? Montgomery, Chester or Philadelphia?</p>

<p>Chester County doesn’t have a CC. Philadelphia, Montgomery County, and Delaware County do. Quality varies, depending on the program you choose.</p>

<p>The community college in your home county probably will be least expensive, though all probably will be cheaper than a public or private four-year school.</p>

<p>I also wonder how much of your difficulty came from professors and how much from your skill in English.</p>

<p>^^english is my second language. I need to take business writing class ASAP. tha has effected my grades.</p>

<p>If your written English is representative of your speaking, reading, and listening skills, you should think about spending one semester just to work on English. Have a meeting with the ESL department at Temple, and find out which courses will help you catch up to where you need to be in order to be successful in the classes in your major. As Wordworker suggested above, the problems that you are having right now might be more a result of your language skills than they are a result of deliberately unhelpful professors.</p>

<p>If you have not lived in the US for very long, you may also be having trouble understanding your professors’ behavior as well as the words that they use. Getting adjusted to a new set of cultural norms is not easy. You might benefit from a visit to the International Students Office. The people there can help you understand which behaviors that you have seen are considered to be helpful and unhelpful in a typical US university environment.</p>

<p>I don’t know anything at all about your major, so your own professors are probably the best source of information about other universities and colleges in PA. You also could check out the career center at Temple. The people there might have more ideas for you.</p>

<p>Good luck with everything!</p>

<p>I agree with happymom that intensive English should be your priority right now. A business writing class will require more fluency than you have. Check with your community college or with any other college or university that offers an English program for non-native speakers. The CC is likely to be least expensive.</p>

<p>My concern about Villanova itself is its reputation as an especially non-diverse place. That suggests the faculty and staff may not be well-equipped to give you the help you need. And, without that help, your chances of success are minimal.</p>
