W&M is a great school; it has very good academics and some great professors but it can be a little competitive.
The campus is amazing, but I hate the city.
(I've been going there for a year.)
If you mean William and Mary- then yes, its very competetive to get in and doubly so for out of staters (its a state school). My son goes there and loves it...he says you don't find kids with a lot of attitude as you might expect. Its mostly Virginia kids and pretty conservative. He doesn't spend much time off campus- but I can't imagine Williamsburg would be a deterrent.

This is good information. We are tentatively planning a trip out east to look at schools this summer and if we do go, this is one school that is on our list. Thanks.
Penn state
CUNY City College
SUNY cortland
Pace university
The college of Saint Rose
Penn State is selective for a state school. 'Getting to be like Michigan. Small town setting- everybody I know that has gone there is very proud of it.
Pace is in the heart of the city- no campus in the traditional sense.

Of- course the famous schools in this region are UNC, UVA, and Duke, with good reason.
Some of the most impressive mid sized schools we visited are in eastern PA : Layayette, Bucknell, and Lehigh are all outstanding and have BEAUTIFUL campuses. Lehigh has a a reputation as a party school. Bucknell is quite conservative. My nephew who went to Bucknell notes that most of his professors were US born, for what thats worth.

PSU is not nearly as selective as Michigan. In terms of SAT scores/acceptance rate, it's more in the neighborhood of OSU/Pitt/Rutgers/Delaware.
I live in Maryland and I am looking for a good, preferable Catholic or Christian, college for Biology majors that is either in Maryland or in a surrounding state. Any suggestions?

Loyola University Maryland sounds ideal for you. Mount St. Mary's is a lesser school, in my opinion, but might also be worth investigating.

I have looked into the Mount because it is about 30 min. from where I live. I don't really like it, and it is a lesser school. Thank you for your suggestion, I'll look into it.
I'm looking for any School in the New York City area that has;
- At least an average Accounting program
- Doesn't require Accounting
- Where you can transfer 50+ credits.
Any other suggestions?
What type of school are you looking for exactly? Those were pretty random.
Also, you are confusing me! You want a good accounting program but you do not want to take accounting? That makes very little sense.
You can transfer 50 credits anywhere, but you are going to need to meet your new schools requirements as well. Most colleges require at least 36 credits in residence. And your major, if it's accounting will need to be dome at the institution from which you graduate.
What is your GPA? What school or schools did you earn those 50 credits from? Do you want to work hard and get a degree from a respectable institution - or do you just want to get out fast? I am hearing mixed messages.
