hard knot
#

im in between like Northeastern Syracuse and Brandeis atm

serene solar
#

Ill say this

hard knot
#

also lehigh/fordham/rochester/stony are cool

serene solar
#

Syracuse is more social and has a stronger alumni network than northeastern

#

Plus you’re going into whitman

#

Whitman has alot of connections with good firms

austere anchor
#

damn

hard knot
#

ik neu has great alumni network for sure esp with co-ops but i will probably agree on the social part of your statement

hard knot
austere anchor
serene solar
#

Only thing NEU has over cuse imo is co-op/internships

hard knot
serene solar
#

But youre gonna have to grind no matter which college u go to for those

hard knot
#

thats true lol

#

i mean rn im trynna leverage the $96k i got from brandeis and $80k from syracuse for northeastern

austere anchor
#

I have a friend who attends neu

serene solar
#

Imo if the money is better with syracuse once FAFSA comes out i say accept cuse instead of NEU

hard knot
#

ima see if northeastern can give me more money

hard knot
#

its probably near full for all without scholarships

#

northeastern gave me like what $3k/yr off with css maybe ill get like $10k off max with fafsa

serene solar
#

brandeis is not that good my unlce went there its rlly dead

hard knot
#

idk how i even got any money

hard knot
#

austere anchor

#

i got accepted to neu then waitlisted babson but the rest of my reaches were fucking brutal

#

full of rejected by 8 schools (i have no idea why)

austere anchor
#

since all my friends who graduated last year attend schools in mas all they do is hang out and chill around BU

hard knot
#

villanova, uva oos, unc oos, BU, BC, NYU Stern, Tufts and Colgate all rejected me

#

😭

hard knot
#

they dont work?

#

or nything

#

oh

#

i missread

#

i thought u meant graduated BU

#

imo there isnt much of a 'BU' tho

#

its just buildings scattered across

#

literally NYU 2.0

#

i went to visit northeastern and BU and i remember NOTHING about BU cus it was pretty unmemorable imo

#

but i definitely remember northeastern i loved their campus

austere anchor
#

ehh idk thats what they told me they do

#

but then again they are by 10 other schools

#

oh yeah I forgot

#

I applied to BU

#

for rd

#

got rejected lmao

austere anchor
hard knot
#

austere anchor
#

im not really worried tho

hard knot
#

BU was fucking brutal this year

#

with the rejections

austere anchor
#

yeah

hard knot
#

yk i watched a video of top 25 most surprising schools that were rejecting people this year

#

7/8 of my rejections were on there

#

#

😭

austere anchor
#

hard knot
#

4 months already sounds terrifying to me but

i def couldnt do 4 YEARS

austere anchor
#

hard knot

like stern is top of the cream

austere anchor
hard knot

austere anchor

@hard knot who offered u more aid

#

i didnt check what syracuse gave me

#

i dont think i even see it

#

i only see scholarships

its gonna be near full tuition without scholarships for both

im just gonna use my 96 and 80k scholarships to negotiate for more money with northeastern

#

praying it works

austere anchor
hard knot
#

thank you

#

wbu where are you going

austere anchor
#

though I need to get the fin aid situated with

hard knot
#

ah good luck

austere anchor
#

yeah thx

finite fog
#

does anyone know how to check finaid for syracuse?

#

i only see scholarships i dont see like a place that's telling me how much i'll need to pay

slate acorn
#

As far as I know, they haven’t release it yet, but it will be on my slice, which is linked in the portal, as well as how to make an account for the site I believe

#

It also says in portal that they’ll email when financial aid packages are available

plain sable
#

is syracuse expensive

serene solar
#

Extremely

#

Unless you’re low income i wouldn’t put it past taking out student loans

#

Syracuse has been my childhood dream school so idrc abt it too much

mossy stream
#

yo do any syracusies know how hardcore the party atmosphere is there

#

my brother got in and is considering going there but my parents r concerned that he will be distracted by the partying

serene solar
#

Syracuse is listed as a “party school” but that doesnt guarantee youll be partying 24/7

#

Its a very social school but youll find the right clique of people who do their work yet still have fun

#

Just cause you go to Syracuse doesn’t mean youll go to a party every weekend

#

Maybe for the first 2 weeks of freshman year but thats it after that

#

That goes for all schools though

mossy stream
#

Yea

#

i guess a better question is how easy is it to avoid/navigate

serene solar
#

It’s pretty easy to avoid just underdtand sometimes youll have fomo

#

There’s gonna be kids who are strictly against partying

mossy stream
serene solar
#

Only 30% of the school is affiliated with greek life which seems like alot but compare that with the other 70% and it makes no difference

#

Syracuse is just a very social school

mossy stream
#

yea 30% isn't too bad

serene solar
#

You dont need to party to socialize though

mossy stream
#

that's good

#

he's really excited for the sports culture (sports business guy)

serene solar
#

Plus, and the alumni said it asw, youll barely get time to party once midterms and finals rolls around

#

The kids that continue to party are the ones that are gonna end up working minimum wage jobs cause they dint take school seriously

mossy stream
#

ima make a school x v y post

Syracuse is very strong in the finance field especially if you’re in whitman. Dont expect a quant finance job after grad but you can definitely expect a decent 6 figure job if you put the work in
