I said that it is “ONE of if not THE best programs” that Marist has and I stand by that assertion. Their Communications, Fashion Design Programs are also very good but not sure if I know enough to say that the SOM is universally considered the best.
Because Marist is a much smaller school than the other two you have mentioned the opportunities to work with the powers that be (my son has met the President 3 times and that is not unusual!) and be known by your professors puts you in positions to learn and succeed unlike other large institutions where you can easily become just a number. I went to 2 very large schools and did okay but I am pleased with the experience I believe my son is getting at Marist and the chance to be a big fish in a small pond. there is nothing wrong with being in a big pond no matter what size fish you are, for my son though we just felt as if this would suit him and he is extremelu happy and doing exceptionally well because of it.
