Syracuse Vs. Colgate

Colleges and Universities A-Z Syracuse University

<p>I'm posting up for a friend who is having a hard choice of which school to matriculate into next year. She has narrowed her acceptances to Syracuse and Colgate. Both of them are great schools in her opinion, and so, making the decision even harder. Both college gave her [practically] full-rides to their respective schools. And so, she’s torn between the two. I'm posting in hopes to receive both sides of the question (another thread will be posted in the other college’s thread). She is thinking about majoring in the science field; however, not particularly the pre-med concentration. Moreover, would it be harmful or difficult to switch out of the originally stated science major into something in a different field? Lastly, in your own opinion, what would you say are the pros and cons of your respective university?</p>

<p>Thanks for your help all. Greatly appreciated. :]</p>

<p>If I were her, I'd go to Colgate. It was really competitive this year (like 23% I think?) and I was on the wait list. It's a tougher school and to get full-ride for tuition is awesome. Congrats to her.. But of course there are a lot more factors to considered. When I visited a year ago, the science facilities seemed pretty decent and it would be best for her to visit the schools.</p>
