<p>Has anyone attended SU? Does it have a good reputation? It seems like a huge party school...</p>
<p>Newhouse and VPA seem well-respected. I can’t offer much insight into the university itself, but I have lived in Syracuse for my entire life and can answer any questions you might have about the metropolitan area.</p>
<p>Newhouse is highly respected – and hard to get into.</p>
<p>The Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs is consistently ranked the top or near the top in the nation, regularly beating out the likes of Harvard, et al.</p>
<p>Also, it has a very well respected school of fine arts.</p>
<p>Good private northeast college in the northeast. It’s location really holds it back, but it has a few decent programs (sports broadcasting, journalism, etc.). Well known nationally due to its sports program that is moving to the Athletic Coast Conference. </p>
<p>I would visit in the winter if you’re thinking about it.</p>
