Yida79:

I get admitted to Kenyon college with 44k scholarship per year, Denison with 60k per year, UToronto with 25k per yer, bard with 30k per year, and also Northeastern, Rutgers, OSU, UCI, UPitt.

I’m shocked that you think you were rejected when you got into all of those schools. Most of the students in the US don’t get those opportunities. You received merit scholarships that a lot of our students in the US would not even be considered for. In other words be grateful that you got in to a US university. I’m sorry your parents don’t think they are prestigious enough, but that’s their issue.

If you are majoring in film and you got into UCI, then I would suggest UCI because it is close to the film industry in California. The UCs ARE well regarded. They are KNOWN throughout the world. It will be expensive. But it does have both majors.

I agree that the film industry is not considered a good prospect for finding jobs in the US, but you’ll be returning to China after you graduate, so you should research that industry in your home country.
