What are your general comments?

SUNY Upstate seems to be a good school and I would love to go there. Both the students and faculty speak highly of their school. If you need lodging, STAY AT THE ECONO LODGE! It was inexpensive and most importantly the management is so nice! I was almost running late so they gave me a ride(as opposed to 10min walking)and seemed genuinely worried for me. After my interview they gave me info on Syracuse and answered all of my questions about what it's like living there. They'll pick u up from the airport and also take you there after your interview, so you could just leave your bags with them in the morning. So not only did I spend little money on the hotel but I also saved on taxi.
