I’ve been accepted to SUNY Plattsburgh, SUNY University at Buffalo, Siena College, Le Moyne College, and I’m getting admission decisions from SUNY New Paltz and SUNY Oneonta within the next few days. I’m looking to major in something business related, like marketing. However, having a school with lots of other majors I could potentially switch to is fairly important to me. Here’s some pros and cons of each school:
Plattsburgh:
Pros- I have an older brother there so I would automatically be fairly comfortable I think, It’s 2 hours from home, according to them; I would have lots of internship possibilities.
Cons- not as prestigious or highly regarded as my other options.
UB:
Pros- Lots of different classes, huge student body, big city, lots of sporting events,
Cons- 5 and a half hours from home, class sizes will be massive (I’m not sure if this is a bad thing or not to me)
Siena:
Pros- very close to home, known for business
Cons- very small
Le Moyne:
Pros- nice campus, nice surrounding city, very close to SU, lots of business majors, a good friend of mine goes there.
Cons- small, “suitcase school”, very cliquey.
i won’t write about new paltz or oneonta since I haven’t been admitted yet but I will say that oneonta doesn’t have my current desired major.
I’m looking for pretty much any info because my deposit is due very soon. All of these schools would be roughly the same price after grants and such (price isn’t an issue). I didn’t go too in depth on my thoughts for any school because I’m short on time but if anyone has any questions for me, I’ll answer them.
Thanks everyone.
