Hey everyone… I’m new here to this forum, but definitely not new to the college application process! As a transfer, I applied to 4 schools; Syracuse, Hofstra, SUNY Oswego, and Emerson. I’ve been accepted so far to all but Emerson, and am still patiently waiting for Emerson! I know that the SI Newhouse School is very well known, very well respected, and an accredited school for communications and journalism, and absolutely love the idea of going there. Although, I can’t shake the fact that it’s still in Upstate (where I’m from) and that compared to Hofstra and Emerson, the internship opportunities seem quite small. While I’m not trying to jump the gun and assuming that I’m in at Emerson, can anybody here weigh the pros and cons between the three schools? If I do get into Emerson, I’m going to have a tough time choosing! Mind you, I still have not recieved any FA packages. Thanks for your help!
