<p>I was wondering if someone with experience with or knowledge of both schools could compare them in terms of academic rigor, personalities and interests of the student body and reputation. I've already been accepted into New Paltz but I've been getting a lot of mail recently from Drew and after doing some research it's begun to look appealing. The thing is, I don't want to waste their time with an application if I'm likely to ultimately select New paltz over Drew. (Should I be admitted to both)</p>
<p>I'm not asking which is better because I'm sure they are both great in their own ways, but I'd like to get a better understanding of the different attributes of each school.</p>
<p>also I plan on pursuing a double major in theatre and probably English (but possibly history) </p>
