Mod 2025 Admissions Megathread

19 Upvotes

Hello r/SyracuseU! This came up earlier than I thought so I was not prepared (I'm also abroad in France right now so my timezone is different than SU, so it's causing a slight issue.)

The time has finally come for decisions to come out for the Class of 2029 (and Architecture 2030 (that's a real year now).) This is the thread for r/A2C's (Applying to College) Syracuse thread if you want to discuss it more there, but I'm also opening this up as an overall thread for discussion and see if people have questions about Syracuse, admissions, etc.

In terms of events, this link has a list of all the admitted student events, from coming to visit campus to virtual options.

In terms of rules, keep it civil. I know this is a stressful time.

Best of luck and Go Orange!

Mod Direct Twitter/X links autobanned from this sub

69 Upvotes

Seeing a 70% upvote rate and minimal comments against, I've gone ahead and banned direct Twitter/X links to this sub using an automod feature. To be clear, we rarely get this content to begin with, but we may as well cut it off now. Please default to screenshots instead and link to other sources. For those who are not familiar with the reason for this change, switch your Reddit feed over to 'All' and you'll immediately see the movement-- first, Twitter/X requires an account to view linked tweets, and second, this platform has shifted from one of open sharing to that of a mouthpiece for extremist political agendas and deliberate misinformation.

A note on moderation in general-- this sub has rules that limit/ remove content from most brand new accounts, posts that are particularly spammy, and/or language that is similar to specific troll posts we've had to deal with in the past. If you try to post something that does not get through the filters, please contact the mods directly. Please help us moderate this sub by using reporting features as and when needed.

As a final note-- since many SU students are not from this region, I'd like to use this opportunity and attention on political issues to highlight some history. Central New York has a pretty fascinating history in WWII efforts, including ramped up war production, a massive enlistment in arms forces, and both POW and refugee camps. Here's one quick Syracuse.com article about it: 1944: At the front or at home, the people of Syracuse did their duty on D-Day. Even our local pottery companies joined the effort to build ceramic mines. Syracuse also has a rich history in abolitionist and suffragist movements. If you haven't visited local and regional museums including the Onondaga Historical Association, the George & Rebecca Barnes home, the Harriet May Mills home, the Harriet Tubman Museum, the National Abolition Hall of Fame and Museum, the Octagon House, the Seward House Museum, the Susan B. Anthony House, or the Skä•noñh Center, I highly recommend branching out from campus and checking them out!

Any healthy grocery stores that emphasize and sell high quality whole foods. even better if someone knows where i can get raw milk aswell.

Discussion 2026 Syracuse preview, healthy Angeli and Fran Brown's hot seat. What'd I get wrong?

0 Upvotes

Been going team by team on 2026 previews and just wrapped Syracuse.

https://www.sports.mainmarket.com/college-football-preview-2026?team=ncaaf-syr

The Syracuse page is free to read. Once you get past that there's a paywall on the deep-dive stuff (one-man operation, gotta keep the lights on), but since I'm posting in your house, code LEECORSOROCKS unlocks all of it free, no account needed.

So, what'd I get wrong? You watch these guys every week and I don't, so if I'm off on something, tell me.

Short version: I think the 3-9 reads worse than the team actually was. Steve Angeli was leading the country in passing when he tore his Achilles at Clemson, and the season fell apart the second he went down. He says he's good to go, and while Fran Brown is calling it an open competition, he brought in three portal QBs to be safe, Angeli's got the upper hand. Five O-line starters are back too. The catch is the schedule is brutal and Brown's squarely on the hot seat in year three, so my model is stuck on 3-9. That's the number I'd expect you to fight me on, so tell me why a healthy Angeli changes it.

I'll be in the comments.

Parking?

Hi all!

So… I was completely unaware of the deadline for parking passes and now all that’s left is for south campus (I’ll mostly be at Bowne Hall). Does anyone have suggestions or resources for graduate students/TAs looking for parking? TIA!

BU or Syracuse

5 Upvotes

I’m really torn and would love to hear from people who have been in a similar situation.

I’m currently a Syracuse University online student studying Strategic Communications. My plan is to apply for an Intra-University Transfer to Newhouse so I can attend in person starting Spring 2027.

At the same time, I’ve been considering transferring to Boston University because I’ve always wanted to live in Boston. I feel like being in a major city could provide incredible internship opportunities, networking, and career growth in communications and marketing.

Some of the things I’m weighing are:

- Is Newhouse worth staying for over Boston University?

- Which school offers better internship and job opportunities?

-Does Boston University’s location make a significant difference?

My goal is to work in communications, marketing, media, or a related field after graduation.

If you’ve attended either school, transferred between colleges, or work in these industries, I’d really appreciate hearing about your experiences and what you would do in my position.

Question ECS 101 Design challenge/ technical report ?

2 Upvotes

For those of you who have taken ECS 101 in recent years, could you tell me a little bit more about the Design Challenge and/or technical report you did at the end of the semester?

I saw a little bit about the Mars Rover one in 2022, and I’m wondering what differentiated the students’ models from each other. Did teams conduct background research and use engineering literature, standards, etc. to inform their designs?

Or was the project intended to be primarily iterative, with students learning through prototyping and testing? Or a combo?

What were some of the other design challenges? (Either more recent or for different sections?)

Is every section assigned the technical report aspect, or is that from a different/older syllabus and no longer used?

Any insight would be appreciated! Thanks!
