While my GPA from undergrad at UCSD is 3.8 and GMAT score is 720, I was on E-2 visa for my undergrad years and therefore could not apply for any interns or jobs. Even though I lived in U.S. for 10 years, I am still on visa and therefore not a citizen and a permanent resident. If I want to apply to Ivy business schools, should I wait till I have a green card and work experiences? Or should I take chances?

I need to know my chances of getting into UC schools.
Weighted GPA: 3.7
SAT: 2290
ACT: 31
I have some extracurriculars and I'm assuming my personal statements won't be a deciding factor.
So, in your opinions, which UC schools will accept me?

I need responses for a survey for my Statistics class. I need responses from those ages 18 to 29. Are you more likely to eat fast food or cook your own meal? I need you age and gender, as well.

Thanks in advance! I am an "old" college student (working on my Masters) and I take courses online, so I have NO contact with people in this age group.

I love music, but I don't know if I should major in it.
What should I think about before deciding whether I should major in piano performance?
I'm currently taking classical piano lessons, and I don't practice that much since school and stuff dominate my life right now, but I do like the concept of practicing like two hours per day.
I've talked to my piano teacher and one musician about it, but I'd like some more advice.
I'm applying to Notre Dame, U of Chicago(maybe), Villanova, Dominican, IL Benedictine, UIC, UIUC, Washington U in St Louis (maybe), Converse, etc.
(Which program do you recommend-i'm also interested in science (specifically physics, psychology, pre-med, language, philosophy, and polisci).
I think I'd like to be a piano teacher, because my piano teacher is awesome and I'd like to be like him, but I'm not sure if it's the right career for me.

I can't afford to go to those and so my mom said I should apply to the state college. She said if I really wanted to go to an ivy league or a private school like NYU then I need to take a few years off after high school, work full time and then apply to college so that I wont be in so much debt. I'm so jealous cause all my friends are going to these expensive schools and their parents are paying for everything even getting them their own apartment in the cities they're moving to! I hate my mom so much right now. What should I do in your opinion

I have been playing the viola since a very early age, and have played in numerous youth orchestras across the years. I am no longer in a community youth orchestra, but am in my school orchestra. I am seriously considering becoming a professional violist.
I would love to go IU Jacobs or Denver U Music School.
Any tips or thoughts?

Thanks so much!

For example, should I give them a stamped envelope and address for them to mail the letter to the University that I am applying to? Anything else I should give the teacher?

In high school, my academic performance other than band was abysmal. Since I'm majoring in music performance, I thought I'd do well in a related field like instrument repair (which I'd have to go to technical college for). It would be a good day job and I'd be able to feed myself.

If I do very well academically there will it count enough towards a regular university that they'd ignore my high school grades? I'd gladly go to a conservatory, but there's so much less available where extracurriculars are concerned.

To those of you who have attended, or if you have known someone who has attended: Is JIU a good school? I am seriously considering obtaining my MEd from them, but I'd like to hear some reviews. Any firsthand information would be really appreciated.

i just finished applying for NYU, and Columbia Lawschools. NYU is my first choice. Then Columbia, then Cornell. i'm giong to apply to other ones later. My pre-law advisor says i have a good chance of getting in NYU because of my GPA and LSAT and qualifications. Plus she went to NYU and she should know. Anyways, how does a person stay at the top of their class in lawschool? Especially, a very demanding lawschool? if i stay at the top of my class like the top 5 students for 3 years, will i have an easier way to start out with jobs after lawschool?

I can pay for NYU tuition because i own my own business. so i can afford NYU and have money left over after lawschool. so that's not a problem there. But after lawschool will it be difficult for me to find a high paying job?

Also, for those in lawschool, how do you stay at the top of your class? do you have to suck up to the teacher or just get good grades and that's it?

If I'm not college-bound? Or is it required to graduate? I'm failing Spanish so it's not doing me any good.

If it is required... I was wondering if I could take Spanish one year and then French the next and have them both count, or do both years have to be the same language?

I'm currently a double major in Film & Journalism at the college I'm attending. I main reason I took up Journalism is to have a fallback if film doesn't take off right away and also because I really want to have some writing cred, and I'd like to hone up on my writing abilities. Reporting just excites me all around. I'm taking a news editorial sequence for the degree.

I've been thinking a lot about how much I love photography lately. Photography and Film do have close relation to one another, but regardless, I want the degree in Film and Journalism. My school offers a Photojournalism sequence for the degree so in theory, I could switch from my news editorial sequence.

I guess my main concern is, I would love to learn more about the art of photography and how to apply it to journalism but I do want to do what it takes to get into writing for the mass media. My question is, if I switch tracks and start taking photojournalism, would I still have hope to get into writing for a newspaper?
