Anyone who goes to Baruch...

<p>I am planning on attending Baruch, but before i do, i would like some info .
What is the school like ? the social life ? the people ?
Anything you can tell me will be appreciated . Thanks =]</p>

<p>i looked at some of the CUNY schools online,
and Baruch has such a nice building</p>

<p>Well I'm a Baruchian (I don't know if this term has been coined)! Anyway, the school is extremely nice and quite large. There are something like 15,000 students that go to the Baruch every year including the graduate students. The social life is often complained about, but usually by people that don't make that extra effort that comes along with a commuter college. Yeah, we don't have beer pong or a strong greek life but our clubs have events every week. Theres always something going on or somewhere to go with your friends at the end of classes. The people are fierce, everyone is extremely competitive yet at the same time they can be really mannered, nice and just plain fun! An example in my mind is my daily routine when I enter the building and there are people ahead of me at the door. People will actually wait for you so that they can hold the door for you!</p>

<p>what about Honors Baruch?... How does that compare to other business schools (NYU, Michigan, etc)..
honors Baruch students receive full scholarship, laptop, etc.... but do they also get free housing? (i.e. their apartments are paid for)? don't they also get a stipend?</p>
