My son was accepted RD into his first choice program at Syracuse. Falk with Sport Analytics. His second choice program was Whitman for Finance. He is really struggling with what to do, as I think he wants to attend Syracuse, but is having second thoughts on Sport Analytics program. We’ve discussed having a Finance Minor and getting involved with clubs within Whitman to strengthen the business side of things. Couple of questions:
- does anyone have experience with Falk/Sport Analytics and professional outcomes (other than marketing materials they provide)? In other words is the program legit or too specified?
- based on any experience, would it be better for him to inquire about switching to Whitman for Finance and then minor in Sport Analytics?
If he started in Falk, how difficult might an inter-university transfer be if he should want to change?
As a background, he is very interested in business and the business of sport. Ideally he would like to be International - working for a sports team, consulting group, etc.
Thank you for any insights!
