affordable business universities

Hi im a high school senior from italy looking for some college that could offer a decent business major. Problem is, tuition for intl students is in most of the cases not affordable. So, does anybody know any colleges with reasonable out-of-state tuition (20,000 or less) that would give me a good preparation in business??

I did some searching on the web, and i kinda got the idea that Oregon and Oregon State are pretty good in their business departments: is it true?

thanks to all repliers!

IU OOS is 23k/year if you get the good merit scholarship (GPA of 3.8+ (weighted or nonweighted, doesn't matter) or top 10%, and ACT of 30 or SAT of 1280 on Math + Crit reading).

I've never heard anything about the business programs at Oregon or Oregon State. They could be good, they just aren't very well known. Any of the top business schools (the ones that will be well known across the USA or even the world) are going to cost over 20k/year for an international applicant.

However, you should definitely try applying to a few of them. A lot of universities give out a lot of scholarships, and there is a chance you could push it under 20k/year with that. Do you have a PSAT, SAT, or ACT score you can give us? Even if the scores aren't amazing, there are usually very generous scholarships for families that make under a certain amount of money per year.
