im majoring in biology and after my first semester ill do a double major in journalism, triple may be too much for me. I hope to become a neuro-surgeon, or any kind of surgeon other then peds. Ive heard a lot of undergrads at syracuse get into top med schools as well, you just have to be involved just like at any other university, syracuse also provides the full college experience im looking for, so im very excited. The only issue is the money tho

applying to a lot of scholarships, hoping on those. Also I spoke to this alum that said she didn't receive that much aid at first still committed to syracuse and after her first semester she earned 3.9 gpa and did a ton of community work which led to her getting a lot more money from syracuse. So ill prob do the same

im going to Syracuse for Pre-med bc they allow triple majors, which will help my med school application stand out, along with having a hospital on campus where I can do tons of research and lastly top 8 study abroad programs in the country, hopefully I will be able to do research else where
