<p>My son indicated that Lincoln center was his first choice without knowing a lot about it. He is interested in communications/media relations. How does this campus compare to the Rose Hill? Can one change from one to the other should he find out that the other is a better fit for him? What are the primary difference and what is housing like? He was shocked to find out he got in....he applied or so he thought as a regular decision candidate but somehow they had him as early action and lo and behold he gets the maroon folder in yesterday thinking its more college junkmail when in fact it contained his acceptance packet! It was a surprise for both because we know two kids who got deferred who are stellar students, evidence of their increasingly competitive pool. So now that he is in, he is interested to know much more and see if this is afterall a school that he might be interested in atteding. Any input? Thank you!</p>
<p>Congrats on your son's acceptance. Yes, he can transfer out of Lincoln Center to Rose Hill if he decides that Rose Hill is a better fit for him. I know someone who changed campuses because her major wasn't offered in LC, so she transferred. It should be a painless transition. Internal transfers happen all the time.</p>
<p>It's safe to say that LC is different than RH. I applied to LC without ever setting foot in RH, and still haven't to this day. LC is close-knit, with only one building and one dormitory. Classes are on the small side - the average number of students in all the classes I've taken so far is about 15-20. Students here are likely to be more autonomous and independent though this is an assumption as I've never been to RH and can't make this judgment. There are a lot of commuters to this school as well because housing is limited.</p>
<p>Housing consists of apartment style suites, the common room is a combination of a kitchen and a living room and you generally live four to a room, I believe. Someone else who dorm can clarify this.</p>
<p>Primary difference between LC and RH is the campus. If you want the sprawling greens, the gothic buildings and the campus-y feeling, RH is likely to be the better fit. LC is more about the location. It's in Manhattan, so the borough itself becomes your playground. It's common for LCers to explore all the different places that the city has to offer. You get out more and see more as everything feels very near. And if you're completely keen on the sprawling greens, you won't miss much going to LC. Central Park is just a block away.</p>
<p>I think that sufficiently describes the campus. If you have more questions or want more descriptions, just ask. I hope your son does go to LC though...it is, as we say, the better campus ;)</p>
