[quote=Anonymous]My son is at Newhouse, absolutely thriving, perfect fit for him.

Syracuse can be a tougher admit than you might think, they reject high stats students all the time. They are very big on demonstrated interest and ECs that align with major interest / possible career paths. Work hard / play hard reputation is well-earned. My son describes everyone he knows as being genuinely involved in multiple clubs or groups or other ECs.

Syracuse student vibe = future alumni network

Stats are really not the main thing, admission-wise. They count, but it's really not unusual at all for lower stats kids to be admitted over higher stats kids from the same HS applying to the same major. Applicants should really bring it home with the "why us" essay. (And not just list things the school already knows about itself lol). Schedule interviews, talk to alumni, current students / teachers / staff / alumni, and really suss out whether it's a fit. If it is, show how. That's how to get in. [/quote]
