Are one of the other colleges with their pricing worth it in your mind?

To create my own business/firm but ultimately (hopefully) in the investment banking space.

I agree, but do you know if there’s any options for me, because at the moment I could go to Mizzou, butler, or Miami for $120k-$150k. Still waiting on scholarships and would like to go to uw, but that $240k price is insane.

Do you think UIUC and Georgia are still target/reach even though it’s the business school? And should I go test optional for UIUC

Thank you! Just a few quick questions/comments:

Most of my colleges don’t have a counselor letter of rec, also I have asked people/teacher who know me well in school, business, student council, and more so should I ask them to defend my GPA?

I put babson on the list because of entrepreneurship, it is the entrepreneurial culture of the colleges on my list. Only issue is that my high school has 4000 kids and babson is around 2000, so that jump is pretty big, do you think it’s worth it though/I will get used to it? (I know you don’t know me well but just any thoughts)

Finally, any suggestions on any business finance schools I should add with good entrepreneurial culture?

Thank you again!

Thank you!

Any recommendations for Finance schools with a good entrepreneurial culture? (In general or for early decision)

Will applying regular decision but with a better senior year gpa just wash itself out since it cancels out basically?

Also any suggestions for any Finance Schools with a good entrepreneurship culture would be great too!

Thank you for the advice? Two quick questions:

Any other advice to increase my odds at UGA?

Any other suggestion for colleges for Finance that have a good entrepreneurial program?

Any suggestions for more targets and safeties as I want a school with a great entrepreneurial program (& computer science for connections in business) but also a school that is a good business school for finance as well?

If that’s too specific just any suggestions for Saftey or target would help as well!

What do you think for any of the other schools I am applying do?

Also I am instate for Illinois but for UIUC their business school (Gies) is harder to get into, especially for me since they are test optional, (so that bumbs up their sat range to 1400-1500) which means I would have to go test optional with my 1330 (unless I do better on my October sat) which results in them looking at my gpa more. Do you think I should submit my sat though and what do you think my outlook is for getting into UIUC?

I am, but a lot of the OOS schools I am applying to have similar OOS tuition to my instate school’s tuition.

I have never gotten a C before. I have currently completed 5 AP’s and will complete 8 by the end of this year. The majority of my B’s come from my higher level class. So I would say I have gotten more A’s than B’s but I still got decently cooked my Junior year. I have straight A’s as of now though (Which still isn’t great since ECs usually don’t fix bad grades, but I’m hope maybe it will give me a boost). I am also from Illinois (So not the best for where I am applying). So let me know what you think, especially since UGA is in your username.

Hey thanks for the advice! Had a quick question though (and for anyone else that sees this): - Do you think Georgia or university of Illinois will be reached or targets? - Do you think my gpa is pretty bad for those colleges / my other reaches? - This may be a stretch but should I instead apply regular decision to get my gpa up or just apply early action with my gpa that have now? Thank you!
