<p>And St. John's isn't an above average/prestigous school?</p>
<p>I meant dat it is but its not as prestigous as nyu, etc...</p>
<p>ohh I am sorry. I thought you said that Hofstra was prestigous and above average. I am sorry for bombarding you with questions, but do you think St. John's is more prestigous than Hofstra?</p>
<p>i think its fairly more prestigious than st. johns</p>
<p>i would choose hofstra over st. johns because when i visted both those schools i had a better feeling at Hofstra...their law and business programs are top notch and their overall reputation is also improving with their business program leading the way....imo you'll also meet people who can give you better connections than st. johns would. Also the campus is beautiful. </p>
<p>I feel that St. Johns will be stagnant while a Hofstra degree will enter the "top tier" nationally one day but both schools have a great reputation in the tristate area </p>
<p>Either school is great but UT-Austin isn't even in the same league as these 2 schools</p>
<p>That was my feeling towards the school from the prospective of a Long Islander who will be attending University of Miami</p>
<p>actually ut austin is far more prestigous than hofstra or st. johns</p>
<p>I am not sure, but I think St. John's law school is ranked higher than Hofstra.</p>
<p>"actually ut austin is far more prestigous than hofstra or st. johns"</p>
<p>if that was directed towards me....that's what i meant i guess i just worded it wrong</p>
<p>I'm considering NEU, BU, NYU, all that good stuff - and then, St. John's for its pharmD program. My dad really wants me to go there, but that's because he wants to me to live at home [all my life].</p>
<p>no, you can do something better-- a more lucrative and in more demand major at another, perhaps more renown, univerisity.
if your APs are good, you may be able to get into top 50 schools, and etc... TRy syracuse and rochester, for instance.
That is what I would do.</p>
<p>what's up. I just want to know what u think about this. I got accepted to St. John's University and Adelphi University. However I chose Adelphi because I think Adelphi has better academics than St. John's. Would you all care to comment on the two schools.</p>
<p>jesuscares wat r ur stats?</p>
<p>SAT score composite 1220 Writing 660
I think my GPA was 3.5 and over (estimation as I am an international student )
Extracurriculars: music, school newspaper columnist, environment conservation organization member, school prefect</p>
<p>worth2try..please go to NYU, it's an amazing school</p>
<p>why not strive to become a doctor rather than a pharmacist? just curious, since I know some only want one or the other</p>
<p>I think that St. John's is better than Adelphi. St. John's is more nationally known (because of the basketball team). In other words many know about St. John's, some know about Adelphi. IMO.</p>
<p>True St. John's is more recognizable than Adelphi. It is just my opinion that the academics at St. John's aren't as strong as Adelphi's</p>
<p>as you said before St. John's name is based mostly on their basketball team. If you investigate further the strongest academic programs at St. John's are pharmacy and their graduate degree law program. It really depends on what you want to do. The decision process for me was easy because Adelphi has a reputable environmental studies joint degree program with Columbia University. Make sure when you are choosing the college that you decide to attend fits the goal you want to achieve not because of the name.</p>

<p>Have you been admitted to this particular program?</p>
<p>*Most applicants to the joint degree programs are high school seniors. Current students and transfer students who are interested in applying should consult with their adviser to determine if they are eligible.</p>
<p>Admission to all of Adelphi's joint degree programs is highly selective. The work is challenging, but also very rewarding, both personally and professionally. You'll find your participation in any one of the programs demands commitment, careful planning, and advisement in terms of course selection and internships. Faculty and staff work as teachers, academic advisers, and counselors to help you meet the demands of your program and enjoy your college experience.*</p>

<p>IF you have not be admitted into the program, it will most likely be harder for you to enter as a transfer.</p>
<p>I am waiting on an academic advisor to contact me but even if I am not selected into the joint degree program. I will pursue the normal 4-yr environmental studies major at the school.</p>
<p>I haven't been accepted yet, just a junior here
I am in the process of looking at schools. My M+V are high 1300's, almost 1400, so I don't know if it will be worth going to St. John's, even for pharmacy. The only problem I have with being a doctor is that it takes SO LONG. I've always been the one to say I'll get married by my mid-twenties... I am starting to revise my statement a bit, but having my first child after thirty just isn't cool with me. I was raised in Russia, so it's a culture thing that I might get over.</p>
