Majors Of Interest For Me Retail Management Psychology Fashion Design This was very important for me because no other four year school had both fashion design and psychology.

Class Size When explained to me, for the required classes you would have one lecture once a week from a professor with about 300 kids. However for normal classes, you would be with a Teachers Assistant with about 20 students. However, when your classes were more specific to your major, there were at most 50 kids in the class.

Hall of Languages: This is the home of The College of Arts and Sciences, and now provides classrooms that can accommodate 2,235 students and offices for many departments, including English and textual studies, philosophy and religion.

Abroad Program (Part 2) This is very important for me because I want to go abroad either in my junior or senior year to Dublin, Ireland. Syracuse is partnered with the University of College Dublin.
