Syracuse vs. Wake Forest

<p>Hi everyone,</p>

<p>I am trying to decide whether I should go to Wake forest or Syracuse University next year. I visited Wake forest and loved it, but I got into the Newhouse school of Communications and the Honors Program at Syracuse. If anyone has any feedback or opinions they would be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much!!!</p>

<p>I don’t know much about Wake Forest, but I do know that the Newhouse program is nationally know to be about one of the best of its kind. I don’t see how you can go wrong with it. I was recently told by a friend who works in higher education that Syracuse offers amazing networking for its grads, and that money spent on an an education there is well worth it. I know the time is at hand to make a decision, but is it possible for you to visit Syracuse before you decide?</p>

<p>hi, i am also trying to decide between newhouse and other schools that are ranked higher than syracuse. the newhouse program seems amazing, but i have also heard that if you are planning to go into communications its not really a big deal if you go to a school that has a “program” like syracuse does or if you go to a school that simply has a communications major and not a separate school of communications. so, even if wake forest doesnt have a communications program like newhouse its really not a disadvantage. then again, a lot of communication employers see the newhouse name and are really impressed and know it is a good school for communications… and probably a lot of them even went there!!! it’s a tough choice… i don’t know what i am going to do either!</p>

<p>What factors are most important to you? Quality of education? Financial Aid? Location?</p>
