<p>I visited New Paltz and am in love with it.
Should i sacrifice going there for Baruch College for a major in Accounting?
I really don't wish to commute because I feel like I won't be happy making friends that are already in cliques. (People around here tend to stay in their friend circle).</p>
<p>After financial aid, New Paltz is about ~3-4k, so tuition is not a problem. </p>
<p>Where should I go?</p>
<p>Go to SUNY New Paltz…it’s a great school and you loved your visit. My son is a transfer student there. If you have any questions, I’d be happy tp try and answer them for you. We were just up there yesterday to visit…we had such a good time in the town, shopping, having lunch and then going to Minnewaska lake which is gorgeous.</p>
<p>100% New Paltz. I believe that 4-year college experience is really important. It’s only 4 year and no more.</p>
<p>btw, are you going to major accounting in New Paltz as well?</p>
<p>Yes i am majoring in accounting at New Paltz</p>
<p>A commuter school is great if you’re looking for 4 more years of high school.</p>
<p>Dont go to baruch, it’s really terribly horrendous, I’m transferring out next semester.</p>
<p>I hear a lot of people aren’t happy at baruch, those that are still there anyways</p>
<p>If you want to go to New Paltz, you got in, and you’ll be able to afford it, I can’t see any reason why you wouldn’t go. Congratulations! Have a wonderful time!</p>
<p>i’m just concerned about majoring in accounting because tons of people at baruch go for accounting but i don’t know how highly regarded the business department is at new paltz. recruits, internships and etc.</p>
<p>Our only criterion for our kids is no commuter schools. In fact, we’ve urged them to specifically look for schools where living on campus all four years is the norm.</p>
<p>One of my son’s housemates is a business major at New Paltz and he got a great internship this summer in NYC.</p>
<p>is your son’s housemate a junior? i think that’s when they start with internships.</p>
<p>Yes, he is a junior.</p>
