I am a stay-at-home mom, looking for a job, and will graduate in May with my Associate's in Accounting. I want to continue to get my Bachelor but I am having trouble deciding between two Universities.

The first one is close to home, cheaper, accredited in my program, and I will get more sholarships but I will have to go on campus.

The second is all the opposite but I can do my whole program online.

I have been accepted at both, but I am struggling with a choice.

Are all pharm schools around the US getting extremely hard to get into? The reason why I ask is b/c i'm currently a sophomore at uconn with little hope of getting in since my gpa is an embarrassing 2.6

Hopefully after this semester I can get it up to a higher 2 or even a 3 but nowhere near what the pharmacy school at uconn wants. I told my adviser and the pharmacists I work with that I'm going to take a year to take the courses that other schools want and apply the following year.

How would my chances be of transferring to an out of state pharm school be? I feel like this is a considerable risk by taking 1 year to do this b/c if i don't get in..then i would have to settle for something like dietetics.

And the reason why my gpa is low is b/c i didn't take college seriously my first year..but now everything is getting better.

I have a 3.7 GPA and I have been looking at several colleges:

-Harvard University (my grandfather, great-grandfather, and uncle attended; my grandfather has donated thousands of dollars to the school for almost fourty years and served on admissions board and was one of the heads of his class-still has contacts.)
-Cornell University (my grandfather also attended Cornell and also donates money to them)
-Brown University (is a 3.7 too low?)
-Yale University (my GPA has to be too low)
-John Hopkins University
-University of Pennsylvania
-Notre Dame

I would want to attend a college in New England, but it is not necessary. Will I at least get into one of these colleges if I apply to all of them?

I realize I have asked this question several times before,

I currently had an interview with the guy from Devry. I liked the part that basically it gets me in and out of school with my bachelors in accounting in about 3 years instead of the longer time in traditional colleges. I was wondering is Devry a good choice or not? I am almost sure thats what i want to do so will it be a good choice? or will it just be a waste of my time. Would University of Houston be a better choice rather than Devry even though it would take longer? I know Devry is accredited as a university so is there any difference? Devry seems good with the fact that classes are smaller and more hands on applied learning? Any help or advice would be great help. Thanks

oh my god, i'm a first-semester sophomore in college. i have to declare my major by march. so i have no opportunity to take any more classes before i choose a major!! please help me! i am in a state of panic. i like psychology but it will get me nowhere according to all of the questions asked on here about salaries and psychology majors. i am definitely going to grad school for something, so would it matter if i majored in psychology and then went to grad school for a high-paying career? i just don't know what to do! i know economics is stable, but the classes are boring. i'm too afraid my grades would suffer and then i really wouldn't get into grad school. someone please help me, i am crying right now out of panic :((((((

I am an 52 year old electrical engineer. I thought about what to do after I retire, and I came upon an idea that I want to teach at the University level. So I started a PH.D program this semester, but I am not sure how realistic my dream is. When I complete the Ph.D program, I'll be 56 years old (if I am lucky, since I am still working full time as an engineer). I want to start teaching as a lecturer for another 5 years part time (56 to 61), then I retire at my company and continue to teach for next 10 - 12 years as a full time professor. Is this realistic plan or am I a complete nuts dreaming a pipe dream? Do Universities hire 56 - 61 years old people to begin with? Can I become a professor at the age of 61 or 62?

Well I have only just become a Freshman in highschool. The first marking period has almost passed nd I am starting to wonder more about what'll have to be of me in order to be able to get into top universities like MIT or HARVARD.

Grades, I can work hard on. I am in the best classes for Freshman, and actually, I have skipped a grade in math so I work with sophmores. I will definately play tennis and always do track... And I will do volunteering for things that I strongly am passionate about. I am in math, chess, debate, and a talanted/gifted club.

I do not know what is most important for these schools that I can work on to be admitted. It is indeed important that I display strong passion torwards something and provide a great sense of personality, but how? How important are grades?

I just don't know anything and it's troubling me~~

I'm a freshman at a university and I am doing my pre-reqs for pharmacy school. It's midterms right now and my GPA is a 3.6 i know its not that good but it will be better by finals. But i have been hearing discouraging news about the timetable to apply and complete pharmacy school. Before my interest in becoming a pharamcist I wanted to be a doctor but it takes a lot of time and it seems to stressful and i don't know if i can be in a postition to determine if someone is terminally ill or theyre dying so i thought pharmacist still helps people but without being solely relied upon. But now i'm hearing that pharmacy school is 6 years? and if i want my B.Science thats 4 years plus 6 years thats 10 years.. which makes me reconsider being a doctor because it gets me thinking not everyone is BORN to be a doctor... everyone is apprehensive about diagonsing someone with sicknesses. and becoming a family doctor is 12 years right including undergrad right? Correct me if i have misunderstood somth

I am a junior in a New Jersey high school. My weighted GPA is 3.4 and my rank is 35 out of 110. I only took one honors class my freshman and sophomore year combined. This year I have AP US 2, and Advanced Chemistry. I am working my tail off this year. I am involved in Spanish Club, Math Club, Science League, and Future Teachers. I got a 160 on my PSAT, have not yet taken the SAT. I did community service volunteering at a nearby hospital. I am going to work over the summer once I get my license. I signed up for Cornell University High School Student Summer Program. I also won awards which was Perfect Attendance, and Principals List (2 out of 3 marking periods were straight A's)

What are my chances of going to Rutgers New Brunswick, St.Johns, Temple University, NYU, Boston University, or Penn State???? Please help me, I am pretty stressed out
