UT, UIUC, USC, UNC -- which one?

哦，谢谢分享。我也没有accounting北京。看来gmat成绩真得很重要啊。。我gmat低的多了。。。(#^.^#)
job placement 都是接近100%德拉。实习对于accounting major 来说也不是大问题。去哪个都差不多的。

哦，哈哈，看了帖子了，，怎么这个人几年后还重新接着写啊。。真有趣。
他有一点这山望着那山高。 也不太知道应该怎样衡量自己的价值。（(不过他说的是big 4的事情。如果不想去big 4 也许两个学校就没有很大区别了吧？)

如果他在ut，夏天也是要修课的吧，所有summer都是众所周知累死人的啦，如果ut program更好，他怎么就不说在ut 上他可能拿到个c呢？
还有他说美国同学拿到奖学金，比的都是人家的分数，其实实力上，在刚开始在美国上大学的时候，外国人总是要比很多美国学生学的慢的。把能力数字化了觉得自己很了不起，不公平什么的，觉得他eq比较低。。
啊，，要出去shopping乐，晚上在灌,,hehe

Congrats.!!

Met an american guy this morning, in class of '05 at UT MPA. below is what i was told:

1.almost everyone already got job offers at this time.

2.quite a few offers from dallas, but also from NYC,seattle, boston, calif...etc. This guy got his B.S from Dartmouth, will work for Pricewaterhouse in NYC from August. He grew up in New Jersey.

3. Half of his class are from out-of-state(Texas). 30% of the class are international students.  class size:~100

uh, that's about it... don't know if it's helpful info or not.... In my mind, they're all top schools in accounting, you make your own choice eventually. USC is a nice private school located in great area, plus the great weather in southern Cal., Austin is a little warmer in winter, a bit hotter in summer, also has plenty of sunshine, about 300/365 days... Great Chinese foods in LA, numerous great places to travel around LA or Cal., but Austin is much smaller than LA, although it's also a mid-size metro-area in U.S., and it's one of the most livable cities in US, small hills and nice lakes scattered around this city, indians referred austin as a gem in Texas hundred yrs ago,  even Texan look differently on Austin due to its liberal atomosphere, "Blue Austin, Red Texas" is the best description about austin in last year's presidential elections...Again, if you like big cities, go to USC, otherwise, choose UT.

* i'm not in accounting area...

Hi Larry, thanks a lot for the information.  UT Austin sounds very fine to me, the only worry is the intern opportunities.  If there is quite a large possibility of getting intern chance as international student, UT would be better choice for me even compared to USC. Also, tuition of UT Austin is a little too high, even higher than USC, especially as a public school. Anyway, thanks a lot for your information.

UT的地点也挺好的。

USC's tuition is $38,000, plus living expenses it would be about $50,000 total. Dock123 have you checked UT's website? It seems to me that one semester in UT MPA (12-15 credit hours) costs $14,000 tuition and fees alone. If you study 42 credits, which is usually the case for non-accounting students, it would be almost $40,000. Besides, UT might increase its tuition for 2005 (up $78 per credit). This would pump its tuition up for another $3000. On the other hand, living expenses in LA are not as expensive as said. If you share apartment with other, monthly rent is about $450. Eating is LA is cheap, I heard water melon in a nearby grocery costs just 9 cents per lb. Nice news for fruit lovers.:-) On the other hand, austin is not that cheap, at least more expensive than UNC, UIUC.  Anyway, that's just my personal research results.:-) Welcome other input.
