<p>Anyone have any insight about the Sports Management program? Is it a difficult program to get into? It looks like a relatively new major, is it well respected? Are the students pleased with the program?</p>
<p>hi Mom,…my daughter is in Newhouse but I have heard alot about this program:</p>
<p>1) yes, it is very difficult to be admitted to because (I think) they only take 25-30 new freshmen every year</p>
<p>2) It is brand new; it was totally funded and developed by an alumnus (forgot the name)</p>
<p>3) It’s supposed “draw” is that internships are pre-set for students</p>
<p>4) No idea if students are pleased (sorry) but if I recall correctly there are some people on CC from last year who are in the program…</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>if you do a search of the Daily Orange newspaper, there was definitely a huge article last year (or the year before) about the program…</p>
<p>I am currently a freshman in Sport Management. I absolutely love the program as does everyone else. It is very selective, accepts about 50 students out of approx. 400 applicants. All of the program staff are very knowledgable and helpful.</p>
<p>mom2009 did your son or daughter apply into that program?</p>
<p>Not yet. Considering it for next year. Son is a HS junior.</p>
