My online experience with Syracuse University was great! The courses that I took were fairly easy courses; and by "easy" courses I mean courses that did not require such a "hands on" approach. It would've been difficult, in my opinion, to have taken courses such as Biology or Chemistry online due to the difficulty level, as well as the subsequent labs that are usually required for those courses. However, I took a Nutrition course and a Psychology course online, and those classes were great! My professors were very nice and extremely helpful if I did not understand something. They were available to have phone conversations or video conversations, if I wanted a more personal meeting. The courses were also very interesting and very inclusive of all students. Lectures and notes were both placed online, to be able to refer back to if needed, as well as videos that included examples of the topics that we discussed.
Overall, I really enjoyed my online experience with Syracuse University!

I often refer to my decision to attend this school as the best decision I've ever made in my life, and that holds true to this day. The student experience here is not necessarily an 'easy' one. The winters are brutal, classes can be challenging, and the size of the school can make it hard to find your crowd at times. However, put serious effort in to your social and academic life here, and the school will reward you tremendously. The campus is in my opinion the most underrated campus aesthetically in the country and it is filled with people from all walks of life. At the underclassmen levels, classes can be large and uninteresting, but as you move into junior and senior years, the education is excellent and professors are very approachable. Truly a special place. Go orange!
Syracuse University is a wonderful school, and I have no regrets attending, whatsoever. Being at that school helped me get to the place where I am today. I give my overall experience 4 stars because of how my beginning experiences were, first coming to the school.
I am originally from South Carolina, and moving all the way to New York for college was both exciting and challenging. There was a big adjustment period for me, being in a new place far from home and trying to balance a whole new lifestyle that was different than what I was used to. Getting to know new people, and the nuances of New York life made for a difficult freshman year.
I say all of this not to discourage, but to give an honest opinion on how my journey began at that school. It was difficult to balance having a new lifestyle so far away and starting fresh at a brand new school. However, I would not change a single thing! Everything happens for a reason, and I am so grateful to have this school underneath my belt!
