Hi,
I am a current senior and am weighing out my options. I am looking to pursue Business Administration and these are my final two (at the same price). I would appreciate any insight into any aspects of these colleges based on experience or things you have heard (college life, culture, people, academics, opportunities, etc), or even opinions about either school. So, University of Richmond or Syracuse University?
Thanks!
Both schools are good, Richmond is a smaller school with no sports and in my son’s opinion (he had similar choices and in transparency chose Syracuse) no school spirit. The after graduation recruitment is the same for both schools. Syracuse is a larger school with about 14000 students and the campus and sports and school spirit is great. Downside crummy weather, lots of snow. Richmond will give you smaller class sizes and better weather. My kid chose syracuse because of a dual major in Whitman and Newhouse and school spirit, he had a scholarship in both.
Richmond offers a range of sports programs: https://www.richmond.edu/athletics/.
