Its fun when you interact with people

I had to transfer several times before I ended up at Sage College of Albany and boy am I glad that I did. I am a person who needs smaller class sizes and a personal relationship with professors to maximize my success, and Sage College of Albany truly provides that. I appreciate the emphasis that Sage puts on hands on experience and internships.

Put simply, it is boring here. It is a small school, which is nice for a small class size (which is one of the only assets here) but it not nice the fact that you know 80% of the campus within the first few weeks, or at least the people that you are going to meet in the next four years. It feels like high school here which is nice if you like HS.

Heavily exaggerated during recruitment and I expected an entirely different school than what I came to. Transferred quickly.
