Question:
College of Saint Rose (Albany)?
Im looking to go to the College of Saint Rose. I don't think i would ever go there but i think it might be a good place for me to go for basketball. The team and everything sounds good but i feel like since the school is so small i might get bored, but there is another college right next to it. I also feel like there isn't all the much to do in Albany. So do you think this school would be a good pick. I do want to party and i just dont want to get bored. I also dont want it to be like high school because my high school is big (2000) i dont want it to be like another high school. What do you guys think. Also do they have a good reputation.

I go to another university in the Albany area and i can tell you that there is plenty to do. While i don't know about the partying, i know St. Rose is very close to college bars that many students go to. It is a very big college town and there are many opportunities to go out and do things (Siena, UAlbany, RPI, Exelcior, Hudson Valley, Skidmore, and Union are just a few of the colleges in the Albany area so there are plenty of parties). As far as reputation, St. Rose is a fine school who prides itself on education. Everyone i know who wants to teach is either going to or will be looking to get into a program at St. Rose. I suggest you check it out to see what you think.
