Opinions on my options

International student Major-Finance(business schools in all of them)

Rutgers -57k/y

Indiana Bloomington- 60k/y

SDSU- 52k/y

FAU-43k/y

UCF-37k/y

ASU-40k/y

Most important for me are the chances of getting an internship(hopefully for a BB,back office at least)

notes- iu is pre bus for me and not direct admission to kelley.

Rutgers is econ but I heard it doesn’t matter and you can go to rbs on sophomore.

And they would have a better chance from the other schools? Kelley is definitely the best option tbh but you're screwed if you dont get in. Would say Rutgers next, def a solid place due to proximity. Also, since you're an international student OP, I'm assuming someone else might be paying. If this is the case, I would only consider between these two options. FYI: Kelley has been becoming harder, class of 2028 had a 7ish percent acceptance rate for DA. This means competition and grade weighting is only getting more difficult for pre business folks. Hope this helps
