<p>in the eyes of the CC board, but I guess that's not going to happen anytime soon.</p>
<p>Well, compaired to many of the schools that these kids are applying too, Hofstra isn't in the same league. However, I was brought up on Long Island. We thought of Hofstra as a fine school with a variety of good programs. I took a computer language class many years ago in Fortran. It was very well taught, and the class was of much better quality than those that I normally had at the better state university that I was attending. My mom went there for graduate school, and she thought their program was great. Be advised though, Hofstra really doesn't have that much to do compared to other schools.</p>
<p>right. Well, they sent me an app, waived the fee, and all but accepted me pre-applying, but I'm really interested in polisci, and I have no idea what their program is like. I've done research, but can't get clear answers.</p>
<p>thanks for the clear answers.</p>
<p>The athletic training program looks phenomonal, what other school do you know of where as a freshman, I could get an intership with a professional sports team? (NY Jets practice on campus) They also have a really good program for students with learning disabilities. It's my 2nd choice behind Hollins University in Roanoke, VA</p>
<p>what do you know about the political science depts/academic aspects of the school?</p>
<p>Yes, Hofstra has a learning disabilities program,but the benefits phase out quickly after the freshmen year. If you have learning issues, I would strongly urge you to consider:
1. Fairleigh Dickenson University in NY
2. Adelphi University.</p>
<p>the program works as follows:
freshman will have required times that they have tutoring, etc the other 3 years the serives are all still available to you, its just not required
i looked at adelphi and it was very nice it just didnt thrill me...campus was dead and seemed to much like a commuter school</p>
