Should I go to PACE UNIVERSITY in NEW YORK? PLEASE ANSWER! I need to decide real soon!?
I am going for business. If I go I will get opportunities to intern in places such the Waldorf Astoria, the Crowne Plaza, Trump International.. I am going for Hospitality Major (which is business) My ideal goal is to be a hotel administrator at a prestigious hotel.
I got accepted and they have given me 7,000 dollars scholarship for each year. Plus Fafsa..
Does anyone know how this school ranks?
Any info on it would be helpful THANKS!

I don't know how your school would rank. But working in major hotel chains like that means opening some cool doors when you graduate.
Why would you throw that away?

Pace is a good school for business, I know many people thay graduated from there and got jobs with companies like jpmorgan/chase and reuters. Don't bother with the stupid us news rankings, they mean nothing. Pace does have in's with many large ny financials so it is a good place to network and get jobs. That is what business is all about. Worry about rankings if you are doing scientific research.
The thing you have to worry about is money. Everyone gets a "scholarship" It is like when you go to macys everything is normally x and the "sale price" is x/2. Like it is ever the normal price! So it is probably going to cost you over 40-50 k a year to live there and pay tuition there. NYC is $$$. So make sure you know you will have massive debt when you get out. Unless you are rich. But it is a good school, and a good time,

It sounds like it is a wonderful opportunity to me and getting scholarships is always a bonus when going to college. I imagine if you applied to the college you researched it a little bit, so I recommend you research a little more, like where the college is located and all that so you can figure out for yourself if the school is a place when you'd be happy. The program sounds respectable and the scholarship opportunity is wonderful, so all in all it comes down to your personal opinions.

Pace has an excellent business program. I don't know where it quite ranks in terms of the top schools, however, I know that it has an excellent reputation.
