[quote=Anonymous]Our kid is headed there this fall. Got into lots of other schools, mostly more sought after on this board, but loved SU. We've visited twice.  I had the impression of just a big party school at first and was not a fan, but came around. There are some really great programs and it's a big place with a lot of true diversity - big athletes and really serious students, even the greek scene seems diverse. My student was able to meet profs in their department before deciding and it felt very personal for such a big place. I was impressed.

One of the reasons it rose to the top is a really great scholarship. One thing I do know is that they still offer merit aid to some strong students in ED, which is rare.

I don't know what they put in the water up there but they all seem to love it. One thing I can't get over if that we didn't talk to any unhappy kids or alums - literally couldn't find them. I can't say that of many ivy league schools we know people at. I think the cold and the sports and the distance just makes for a lot of cohesion that you don't find at schools that size normally.

I'd encourage you to read more about the majors cut, it's really a nothingburger. Normal consolidation. [/quote]
