Syracuse University
Syracuse, New York
Student focused R1 Research University
Syracuse University is a medium sized university with big time resources. The campus has beautiful old and new brick buildings, giving the feeling of tradition and contemporary combined…in a good way. Athletics are BIG and Syracuse ORANGE is found throughout campus. Getting involved in a club or organization is easy, with over 300 options. A beautiful Carnegie Library is one of only two Carnegie libraries still in use as a library on a college campus. Students can find a quiet and beautiful study space here in the middle of campus.
Syracuse itself is a vibrant city on the shores of Lake Onandoga. It is a day trip to Niagara Falls or New York’s beautiful Finger Lake district. The winters are cold and snowy, so bring your hats and mittens!
Tip…Syracuse likes to see student contribution to their community and leadership within an application.
