I am thinking about applying to Syracuse’s Newhouse school bc it’s siginifcantly more competitive than Syracuse as whole, but I am not sure that I want to do media/communications/etc… So, I was wondering if I should just apply to regular Syracuse and hope that they offer me the Honors Program (I am quite above their average stats).
How competitive is the Honors Program and would it be harder to get honors than getting into Newhouse?
It doesn’t make sense for you to try to get into newhouse if you don’t want to get into communications
My thinking was that I would apply as an incoming freshman to Newhouse, and if I don’t find a major that would fit me, I could always transfer to a different school at syracuse. I’ve also been told it’s harder to get into Newhouse as a current student than as a freshman.
The honors program is separate from Newhouse - meaning that you can be accepted into both, so it isn’t one or the other.
