here are extremely disorganized neither the professors nor the students
tend to be of any help. If you have a
question about your major the teachers are no where to
be found and even when you try to get a
tutor you have to wait an extended amount of time
(like a couple of weeks) until your question is answered.
The students fall into 4 categories party people, stuck up,
ghetto, and international students. Most students don't care about their
work here and I think this school accepts just about
everyone. Another
point is the surrounding area. There is almost no civilization
here! You would have to walk about an hour to
get to a McDonald's and if you want to go
to the mall you have to pay about 5 bucks
one way, and you would have to sit on a
two hour bus ride. When you finally get to this
mall all around you is white trash from the locals
that look all inbred. The people are EXTREMELY UNEDUCATED!
In conclusion this school sucks horribly and
only come here if you want to drink and party
because that's all you can do. Good Luck
From a black
girl freshman

Responses This is a valid and emotional review by a downstate student experiencing culture shock in Upstate NY, and I sympathize. However, some facts: 1. Fewer than half of applicants were accepted for fall 2009, and Oswego is rated selective and competitive. 2. McDonald's is 1 mile from campus, according to Mapquest, and Pizza Hut, Subway and Dunkin Donuts are practically across the street. 3. The fanciest mall in Syracuse is a 45-minute drive. More than 50% of students have a car; if you don't, make friends with one who does. |
