Somebody once told me there are one or two colleges in every state that have relatively easier admission criteria. I want to apply to different states but I'm overwhelmed. Can someone give me specifics for some of the states?
Sure, I can definitely provide information for a selection of states. Do keep in mind that while admission to these colleges may be less competitive, you should still make sure the college you choose aligns with your academic goals and personal fit:
1. Alabama: Troy University
2. Alaska: University of Alaska Anchorage
3. Arizona: Northern Arizona University
4. Arkansas: University of Arkansas—Fort Smith
5. California: California State University Dominguez Hills
6. Colorado: Colorado Mesa University
7. Connecticut: Southern Connecticut State University
8. Delaware: Delaware State University
9. Florida: Florida Agricultural and Mechanical University
10. Georgia: Georgia Southern University
11. Hawaii: University of Hawaii—West Oahu
12. Idaho: Idaho State University
13. Illinois: Governors State University
14. Indiana: Indiana State University
15. Iowa: University of Northern Iowa
16. Kansas: Fort Hays State University
17. Kentucky: Morehead State University
18. Louisiana: University of Louisiana—Lafayette
19. Maine: University of Maine—Augusta
20. Maryland: University of Maryland Eastern Shore
This list doesn't cover all the states, but I hope it gives you a good starting point. Before applying, I would recommend researching each college to see if it's a good fit for your aspirations and personal preferences. Remember, just because a college is easier to get into doesn't necessarily make it the best choice for you!
