<p>@Aloha TM My son is undeclared, and Marist has a group called FOCUS that you can join your freshman year which is part of your schedule and you earn credits for, it also helps guide you in a direction, helps with scheduling and other issues new to freshman. He has basically had “core” courses thus far, and has felt them to be challenging, and the professors accessible, and knowledgable. Of course he has complained about excess work, which is a good thing. If he wasn’t complaining about work, and papers due, I would worry! :)</p>
