<p>Ok, so I am equally interested in both the college of arts and sciences at syracuse for economics, and also the whitman school of management for management. I am a senior in high school and on the common app supplement it asks you to choose your first and second choice colleges. I want them both equally, but I wanted to know if the order you choose them really affects admission?? Is the admission for each college a separate process so it wont matter? Im having trouble so if anyone has answers it would be much appreciated!! :)</p>
<p>No, it's not a separate process. If you posted your stats, we may be able to give you a better evaluation (our guess) on your acceptance to each schools.
If for some reason, you do not get accepted into the Whitman School of Management, you may still be accepted into the College of Arts and Sciences. But if you don't get into the College of Arts and Sciences, you're simply rejected.
If I were you, I would select Whitman as my first choice, and Arts and Sciences as my second.</p>
<p>great! that clears things up.
