Binghamton Class of 2024 Thread

Daughter was deferred to regular decision today. She was crushed. Binghamton was her first choice. She had great grades (94.5), good test scores (1320), multiple AP and Honors courses, college credits, numerous and significant EC’s and coming out of a top notch high school. Accepted every place else with numerous scholarship offers, and her dream is to be a Bearcat. Go figure. I just don’t understand. Now what ?

@Countrylawyer I’m so sorry your daughter was Deferred. This process is so grueling, and there is no exact science. The good news is that she is not out of the running. I recommend she send a letter/email of continued interest to her local Admissions Rep if Binghamton is still her top choice. One thing I’ve learned while going through this process with my own child a couple of years ago is that everything works out as it should even though it may not make sense at this time. Sending positive vibes that this works out for your daughter. Good luck!

Do any decisions come out on Fridays? Someone let me know please! Shooting for harpur

Thanks…the bottom of his portal page disappeared today, so I guess that means we will have an answer soon!

bottom of portal means not deferred, i got deferred, and mine didn’t disappear

What does it mean if the bottom of the page still has the send test scores option yet you’re still being considered?

Bottom of his portal page is disappeared this afternoon! decision soon.

Either you you will be notified of a deferral or you will not hear anything until the next release. A decision is still pending. If you were accepted or rejected, your portal would not allow any changes. Hang tough, your still in the game.

Bottom of portal removed

Less than 30 minutes and still nervously waiting lol I have a massive paper due and im to nervous to nervous to do anything but wait lol

The bottom of my portal disappeared today. Was told that meant a decision tonight, anyone know exactly what time I should be expecting it?

Thank you for your Early Action application to Binghamton University for Fall 2020. The Admissions Committee has recommended that your application be reviewed again in the Regular Decision application pool.

Your application demonstrates significant accomplishments, strengths and talents. However, admission to Binghamton is especially competitive this year, and Binghamton only admits a portion of its class through Early Action. We look forward to considering your application again as part of the entire applicant pool. No additional information is required. You will have a decision from Binghamton no later than April 1.

Thank you for the interest you have shown for Binghamton University as an early applicant. We appreciate your strong interest.

Accepted to harpur. The information about the test score submission disappearing on the portal is nonsense, mine was still there this afternoon. So in the future, don’t worry if yours is still there.

Help… Have anyone received the same “option”?

Instead of being accepted into School of Management, my son got the offer to Harpur with “guarenteed option” to transfer to SOM after fulfilling several conditions in Freshman year, like meeting 3.5 GPA, completing Microeconomics, Macroeconomics and Statistics courses, fulfilling 24 college credits and submitting transfer application by Spring 2021.

They are asking my son to accept the “option” by January 14th. I am confused whether this means he is now accepted (and need to withdraw all other EA offers), or he just takes these conditions and still allows to make his final decision by May 1st?
