BU COM vs S.I. Newhouse for Advertising?

College Search & Selection

<p>The thread and question are pretty self-explanatory, but I might as well elaborate since this isn't exactly my only question. (I apologize in advance for the rambling that may ensue in this post)</p>

<p>Little introduction, I'm a junior in High School, and already freaking (and I mean FREAKING) out about my future and college. I had a 98 average freshman year, 99 in sophomore year, haven't received my first report card yet, but I'm expecting about the same average for this quarter and hope to keep it up.</p>

<p>Extra curricular activities include:
-track, taekwondo, soccer, and Eastern European club freshman year.
-soccer, taekwondo, Eastern European Club, Art Club, and Drama Club sophomore year.
-Soccer, taekwondo, Eastern European Club, Art Club, Drama Club, tutoring, Lit Mag, and volunteer work at an environmental center so far in junior year. </p>

<p>(Taekwondo is every day, involves volunteering to staff at tournaments, and staff classes)</p>

<p>I've been a year ahead in math and Spanish since beginning High School, all Honors sophomore year, all honors and an AP now, and am planning on taking more APs come senior year.</p>

<p>BUT, my major question is which school listed in the title should I aim to get into for a major in advertising (hopefully to be an advertising manager)? And what should I work at to get into that specific school/program? Not to mention the basics like SAT scores, and costs. Absolutely ANY response would be extremely useful...</p>

<p>Agreed. Syracuse has a better program for Advertising and Marketing majors.</p>

<p>parent of a Newhouse student; actually while Newhouse is terrific for advertising etc, don’t count out BU COM…I guess it would depend on what type of environment you want for college; BU COM still gets alot of recruiters for internships/jobs; lots of hands on learning…</p>

<p>look at both…BU COM is easier for admission</p>
