Graduate program in North America
 

I am preparing for the TOEFL/GRE/GMAT tests now. I want to apply graduate program in NA. I was majored in Material engineering in my univerisity(www.csu.edu.cn). But I like business/management/marketing/economy. I want to change into that major. It is very difficult to get one USA visa now. Many China students who get the school offers can not go to study becasue can not get visas. So they go to Canada, UK, Australia, Germ..

It is a big dream in my heart to go abroad to study. I will try my best to learn whatever I face on my way. I want to listen to your good advice.

If you get accepted and a visa, who pays your expenses? Would you have to work also? got any schools in mind?

Bruce brings up some good points. What would you be looking for in a host city? As far as a business program, there aren't many better than the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia (where many Cellar members reside, including me).

Good advice
 

1. I want to apply scholarship and loan from banks. And I have some savings.

2. I want to know America. I think work is a good way. But I don't like washing dishes in in China restaurants. It have no use to help my experience.

3. I don't know what school I apply now. I want to enter the east schools.

City
 

I don't know which city I want to go. NYC, Washington... ect are all cities. UP is very very good school. The BS of UP is famous in China. Its China Business graduate students put a lead affect in China now. I dream to, but I don't know if I can get it. I will try.

Hahaha... this may not be a selling point!! Billy may feel the urge to get farther away from us rather than closer.

Billy, don't limit your search... there are many fine state universities that might suit your needs. Their names won't smack people upside the head the way "Harvard" or "Wharton" will but you can still get a very good education.

SteveDallas, Thank you. I should find omre schools. Now my task is take a good GRE score. I think you can give good advice to apply schools. Thank you for helping me.

McCombs School of Business, University of Texas - One of the best in the nation.

I think he said he wanted to go to a school in the USA.:D

Good luck--I've sometimes wondered how I would react to the GRE now. When I took it, I believe it was only 2 years or so before they started giving it electronically. I'm not sure I like the new systems where what questions you get are determined by your answer on previous questions.

True. "Texas - it's like a whole other country."

Are they still playing those commercials anywhere? We don't tend to see them much here (naturally).

I can picture Gabby Hayes saying "...in the whole USA annnnnd Texas.";)

Yeah, stupid ass commercials featuring some boring ass places in a state with the IQ of a pair of shoe laces.

;) (Yeah, I think I just saw one last week...I'm still taking you up on your offer to take me to Texadelphia, TG.)

Bring it on. I told dave the same thing. We've got quite a few decent places for the meat-eater in you.

The weekly entertainment section of the paper recently had a review of the best burgers in town. There was another article that just listed the best 32 places for a burger.

I'm sure you can pack your philly-cheese eatin' ass into the car and head down for a real meal. Screw that northern crap -- I'll show you how to get some cholesterol and really clog those arteries.

Oh yea -- #666 - post of the beast. :angry:

USA and Canada schools
 

I want to apply the USA and Canada schools in the same time becasue the USA schoold provide much scholarship, I earsier get one Canada visa. I know many USA schools because we chat it each other in China forum to know them as I do here.
