求助 Goerge Washington Univ or SUNY at Albany?

都没有奖学金，谢谢

这几天我也很痛苦的选择gwu和suny－binghamton。。。（想来bu和albany差不多吧）

论acc pro的教学质量：suny会好些，学费很便宜，而且问过那里的7，8个在校生，从生活便利到找工作，评价都是良好的。而且华人适中，学校200华人左右吧。关键是acc的口碑不错。（可我不很喜欢nyc找工作）

gwu，在gwu的群里面，现在大概有12－13个人加入并基本决定去了。。。（人数还在上升ing），ps：（小道消息：有人的gmat是5字头！。。。）。。。让人心里很不爽。。。chinese woman class。。。父母的血汗钱花在一个这样。。。的学校，让我很guilty啊。。。

这样看来suny会好些。。。但是。。。但是。。。gwu的名字听上去怎么就那么恢弘让我放不下嗫。。。而且爸爸很支持我去gwu。。。5555

school  dilemma。。。

虽然我也知道，今天无论选择suny还是gwu，几年后的结果或许都差不多，没有本质区别。。。

本想着申请完了，想逃避一阵子作final decision。。。但是，逃避不了几天了啊。。

＝高人点拨。。。

那么多人是包括金融在内的么?

5字头....无语了.

女的很多么?

群里面只有1个msf（boy），13个msa（1 boy and 12 girls）

。。。。。。

我也对GWU今年狂发ad 的做法深表怀疑，不过话又说回来，不这样发，说不定我也拿不到呵。

但是考虑性价比，我宁愿在UTD和Albany中选择，但听说Albany出来找不到工作，也不知真假。

suny的性价比是绝对的高！state的名声和质量确实不会差到哪里的

唉。。。早知道当初少申几个，中一个就不用考虑的去了。。。

从ＣＤ其他版转载两段话过来，大家可以参考一下．

１．Ranking doesn't matter for accounting jobs.  Location is the key. If the school is across the street from a big 4 firm in New York City, you know the graduates will have jobs.  Albany is the capital of New York State and around 3 hours away from New York City.  A lot of Albany alums are partners/directors in Big 4.  All three of the schools have very very cold and long winters.  Buffalo is the place few want to go.  Ask the schools about the exact stats and then compare. You may want to know how many international students went to Big 4 in the US upon graduation in each of the past 3 years and how many failed to do so.      

If you just want to maximize your chance of getting in a big 4 and don't need too many credits for the CPA exam,  you can consider going to Albany, take the MS accounting classes that will qualify you for the exam, but get the MS in Taxation degree.  Tax is a specialty area where demand has eclipsed supply.     

２．

I graduated from U Buffalo Accounting with BS.  Just a reminder that the ranking for SUNY schools really does not play a big role as other aspects, such as school relation with the hiring firms, campus location to metro cities, and of course, your own strength in the field that can help to stand out from other classmates.  If you are looking for a staff level auditing position in Big 4 in NYC, Binghamton is perferred since it will only take 3 hours drive from the city, and they have lots of alumni in the firms that may help the interview/work. 

However, to be honesty with you, in Big4 firms hiring crews' eyes, there is no big difference in these schools.  What really matters is how much your personal/professional traits can fit into their environment, and stand out from other classmates.  No matter which campus you choose eventually, you need to work on your social skills, be proactive in accounting fraternity, and try to get a good internship before graduate.  For Chinese students, good GPA is a given, and good communication and leadership skills are what we are lacking.  Also, try to take/pass CPA exam asap, it will help a lot in the future even if you don't get Big4 offer right after graduate.

Long in short, for schools ranking after top 20 - 30, ranking is not that big deal, especially for Big4.  Relationship with the schools (legacy) and convenience to the hiring crew (distance) are more important.  I went to Buffalo cause I like snow....just kidding, it was because it was the only school accepted me that I applied and could afford.  I would go to Binghamton had they accepted me, and had I known that snow was such a big thing in Buffalo.  :
