Christopher's Review

Review of Syracuse University

from Flemington, NJ

Do you feel you’re learning a lot?

Syracuse University has amazing, proactive faculty members that are quick to immerse themselves in activties and events with their students. Your college education is what you make of it, and Syracuse, with its esteemed faculty, renowned abroad program, and wealth of extracurriculars and scholarships, you'll be given all the tools you need.

Do you enjoy the experience at your school?

Socially, Syracuse is a very fun school. Do not let the cold discourage you! The snow stops nothing up here and yes, although you may have to bundle up here, it will not prevent you from having the All-American college experience.

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

Syracuse is a fairly pricy school. There are many merit and need-based scholarships available to offset this. Be prepared to spend much more than you expected on the extracurriculars you involve yourself with. There are so many trips, events, and conferences that you will not want to pass up.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Do not be afraid to start something new here or propose something big (an extracurricular, an event, a speaker). Syracuse University is a great place to try out new ideas because it is highly supportive of the mindset, Scholarship in Action.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Students who have a balance of work and play. You want to party hard, but you also want to work hard. And not just on math problems. On real world stuff.
