undergrad suggestions?
I was wondering what some good programs/unis are for going into international relations (international business/poli sci is good too). I'm thinking of either going into international business law or eventually working for the United Nations.
Here are some of my stats: 4.18 GPA, 1310 SAT (am going to retake), 13 APs, 17 Honors, 1 Dual-Credit.
I'm not picky about weather, but I'm from Texas. Although I would prefer a public university, I would enjoy smaller class sizes so I understand that's more of a private university thing and it's fine. I want a good school-life balance, but I wan the academics to challenge me. I would also prefer going to the New England area.
Here are some of my ec's as of my junior year: varsity colorguard (three years, have been social media leadership for two years), dance club (member and leader for all three years), community service club (founded this year, leadership), school ambassador (one year), National Honors Society (one year), Youth and Government (one year, 15th at state), summer camp assistant (two years), part-time job at ice cream shop (one year), School of the New York Times (investigative journalism program), school announcer (one year)
