I know there's a constant rivalry between the HU's , but im tryin to decide where to go. I plan on majoring in Computer informations with a minor in African American Studies. Hampton has offered 6, 000, where as Howard has offered nuthin. ( even though i qualify for the legacy scholarship). Just wanted to know the pros and cons of each, and any input you all had on the two.:???: , such as how easily can i get into a suite style dorm as a frehsman oh yeah is it reall required for freshman to take a swimming class at howard thankz

I can't offer any info on what Hampton offers as far as your major, but when it comes to freshman dorms at Hampton...you ain't gonna find no suites dog. You don't get singles freshman year my dude. The rooms in the dorms aren't that bad. You can make em work.

well... i dont know much about your major...however Hampton's living conditions arent anything special...they're doable but nothing 2 brag or be satisfied with lol our area is suburban and our campus is conservative and private...meaning we're a dry campus and generally only party on the weekends, additionally the parties are usually not the crazy hype u'd expect and dream about out of hs idk about howard... sorry i couldnt help more...supposed 2 b doin hw lol eZ
