My son just finished his second year there. He is on a full tuition scholarship. Campus facilities and resources are first rate and as a high achieving student he stands out and has gotten many wonderful opportunities. He had a great internship last summer, a great internship this summer and built a strong narrative that helped him land a great investment banking internship next summer with a top bank.

Syracuse is a great school, but William and Mary was 60K cheaper for her over four years, and Virginia Tech was 120K CHEAPER over four years, and that is with Syracuse being 1/3 off the sticker price. The value is just not there.

That’s probably why it’s not a good fit for Virginia residents who a variety of excellent in-state choices. But for kids from NJ, CT, NY, MD, etc, it’s a great option.

But there are a number of OOS flagships or other publics just as good that will also be cheaper than Syracuse even with 30k in merit.
