<p>Which one is higher regarded and how would you list them as 1/2/3 if you were choosing out of these? I'm studying in the business area. </p>
<p>my problem with albany: party school, heard academics are falling
my problem with new paltz: don't know how many people here actually study business
my problem with pace: i don't want to commute</p>
<ol>
<li>Definitely don’t go to Pace then! You only get to go to college once, so go have the real experience and live away from home.</li>
<li>Albany is the ugliest thing in the world, but probably the best for business.</li>
<li>Suny New Paltz would be the most fun.</li>
</ol>
<p>1) Albany - Best for business - all schools have a party crowd - academics are fine (not sure how people judge academics as falling…but don’t worry about it) - good area for interships - Tremendous choices academically - Good honors program - FTIW I think the campus is beautiful!
2) New Paltz - Smaller school - smaller town - good NYC access - popular at the moment since Newsweek said it was hot - beautiful area -
4) Pace - I like pace, but the housing situation is a concern.</p>
