Is there a difference between faculty support at CUNY schools and private programs in NY?

[Speechstudent]

I am wondering if the CUNY schools offer less faculty support, caring, and guidance as opposed to the more expensive private schools in NY. Are students in CUNY programs left more on their own to "sink or swim" and figure things out.....or do professors want to help their students pass and do well?

 

I haven't heard anything regarding whether or not this is the case and wanted personal feedback regarding this.....

 

I am looking at CUNY Brooklyn, CUNY Hunter, as well as Mercy, Adelphi, and MGH (in Boston).

Any feedback about CUNY vs Mercy, Adelphi, and MGH is much appreciated!

I don't know anything about these schools but have you tried to get in touch with the schools 1st and 2nd years MA students? Perhaps get in touch with the NSSLHA reps and see what gouge they can provide.

How would I contact first and second year MA SLP students for firsthand information about their programs?

Well, my first step would be through NSSLHA. There were two MA representatives that sat on our NSSLHA board. We promoted through FB and I think there was general contact info on my schools website.
