Go to fastweb.com

They let you chose where you want to go, how much tuition you are able to pay, if you want to dorm, what that college has to offer, sports within that college, racial percentages... they give you everything you could ever ask for.

including scholarship offers

It also shows you when your deadline is for college tours.

good luck!

Answer 3

The University of Houston has a great hospitality management school. It was founded by Conrad Hilton. I work for Hilton and I love it. All the things I've heard about the school are great. Also, Houston is a fun place to be with lots of cultural things to do as well as parties and clubs. Plus, its not far from the beach.

Answer 4

The Ohio State University is an amazing college for any major.

Answer 5

michigan state

Answer 6

Coeledge is for morrans.

Answer 7

UCF is over crowded. USF is quite old and a lot of the campus is out of date, and worn.

Most Florida state colleges will absolutely take community college transfers.

I'm almost positive both of those schools have a hospitality major. UCF is so large, that you're going to end up finding what you want, however, because of it's size, it's not guaranteed you'll get the best education.

I suggest Florida, only because it's a nice place to life.

As far as the other schools, I can't help you there.  

Answer 8

michigan state. my uncle teaches there.

Answer 9

johnson&wales i think miami maybe... is big on  hospitality

Answer 10

get a BS in something that you can handle, then get your Professional Engineers' license. A colleague of mine had a degree in agriculture from some podunck school in the mid-south, but studied to be a PE. He also has a certification in stationary engineering, and is a licensed electrician. He runs three uildings for a corporation and is the head of facilities. He manages budgets, organizes events, and essentially, if someone ticks him off then needs some kind of favor later, too bad for them! talk about having power. He makes very good money and is respected by all.

You can get hospitality management from many schools, of course Cornell in NY stands out....... in-state tuition applies to Cornell as it is part of the SUNY system (technically)

Answer 11

UNLV in Las Vegas

You can't find a better school for hospitality in the US. They also offer engineering/architecture, if I am not mistaken. At least check their website.

Answer 12

definitely try to pick a school in an area you will be comfortable in....im promising texas and florida are going to be WAAAAY different than NY (weather isnt the only thing, believe me im from WV and ive spent extensive time in both states and its crazy, its like a different country lol), but if your looking for a change, there you go...other things to think about, student population, clubs, athletics (if your interested in that kinda thing)...other than that, ive always heard purdue was a good school in general
