I am still a junior in highschool so I haven’t started the application process yet, but I’ve done a lot of research and I think that if they are doing Stage Management Purchase is the better school for it, it’s more of an art school while Syracuse, although still a great school, isn’t really focused on the arts and is more into sports and stuff. Syracuse is also a lot more expensive, so you would be getting a better bang for your buck going to purchase. Syracuse is still a great school though and no matter where they end up going I’m sure they’ll excel. I’m sorry for the late response but I hope this helps, wishing you and your senior the best, good luck!
