PSU 离PHILY和NYC稍微近1些.可以到NYC或者PHILY找工作.如果没有绿卡的话,我觉得很难在除了东西海岸外的地方找到工作.
MN 给我的感觉和SD,ND差不多,就像我国的青海省...除了矿,别的什么都没有..(可能感觉有错..)

另,我觉得美国经济欠发达地区(除东西海岸地区,TX,IL,MI等少数发达地区外的其他地区)对外来事物的接受能力有限,很保守,极其不适合外国人发展.

你对MN的感觉确实有错，这里除了冬天比较冷以外，其他都很好。MN的医疗条件很好，人均医疗水平在全美排前几位，绿化非常好，TWIN CITIES是全美绿化最好的城市之一。明州还号称万湖之州，夏天这里是非常美的。前五百强的公司这里很多，像BB，TARGET，CUB公司总部都在这里。MN人均受教育程度非常高，白人居多，人都非常NICE，不像南方黑人多且民风趋向保守，随着这几年中国人慢慢增多，亚洲店中国店也慢慢增加，所以生活很方便。

这里最不好的地方就是冬天比较长，大概有五个月吧，冷倒是不用怕，哪里都有暖气，出门开车，不用担心冻到，只是冬天的户外活动相对较少，只能去滑雪 滑冰。

^_^这里相对东西海岸来说还有最大的优点是房价不高，三十万就可以买个还可以的HOUSE了。

PSU

each is good, tough decision,heh,,

minnesota would be a no-brainer if you are into marketing.

school location is very important. just try to think of how many big marketing companies are arround twin city area - plenty, and how many are around PSU or Vanderbilt - 0.

saying PSU or Vanderbilt is closer to NYC or east coast is useless. what matter is whether these NYC or east companies recruit at PSU or Vanderbilt.

so the best for you would be to go to each school's website, find out what are the recruiting firms at each school, any how many new hires each year.

Yes, that is exactly what I know about Minnesota. It is said to be a place gathered with highly intelectual people and it has strong academic enviornment.

Thanks, your suggestion is very helpful. I looked at their employment report, even the data is so close...not big differences...I think the key will be which one fits me the best...It would be relatively easy to find jobs in Minnesota, and it may take some time to get jobs in Vanderbilt or PSU, just more efforts.

I concur. I have a few friends living in twin cities. I have been there many times (specially like the American Mall). Never see any mines over there. :-)

我倒是觉得VANDERBILT不错, 毕竟是私校， 服务会好很多。UM可以当老二， 既然你对MARKETING有兴趣）

我申请vanderbilt的时候并不知道vanderbilt是一个很有名的私立大学，只是觉得他们的healthcare program还不错，奖学金也不错就申请了. As far as marketing is concerned, I really don't know whether I will be successful in this field or not. My background is engineering. I think language is not a problem, but the American culture...Vanderbilt is said to be very strong in Finance, its Finance services ranks No. 6 by Wall Street Journal. But I don't have any previous finance background either. So whatever way would be hard for me to switch my career. Vanderbilt is just okay in its marketing. I don't know about UM, some say highly about it while some others have lots of negatvie comments. It is hard to know without getting there in person.

How do you guys think about Penn State?
