<p>Hi,
Your stats are just right for Oswego. Also, Oswego is launching a new computer engineering program I think this year. You should apply there.it's a good school. I know, I'm an alumni :).</p>
<p>Thanks for the information tom. I will take it into consideration, my list has changed a lot.</p>
<p>SUNY Plattsburgh
SUNY Fredonia or Oneonta
SUNY Oswego
SUNY Buffalo
UCONN
UMass Amherst
Penn State</p>
<p>Maybe add Albany? Kids in my NY school district seem to get into Albany at a higher rate than Buffalo. But try to go visit schools if possible.</p>
<p>Yeah I was going to say Buffalo can be difficult to get into.
I know that Oneonta has a really nice campus, although hilly. And I have also heard that Oswego and Plattsburgh have beautiful campuses.</p>
<p>Look into Buffalo State College also.
You will not be out in the sticks like some of your present selections.</p>
<p>Buff State may be a good option for you...it is in a fun part of Buffalo and easier to get into than UB. I know that UB requires a minimum SAT and have heard from others that they do not bend on that, one girl was accepted into the theater dept but denied admission due to low SAT. Also, Buff State is not as huge as UB, more the size of Bing.</p>
<p>One other option is Brockport. My D loved it there when we visited. Good luck!</p>
<p>SUNY Buffalo's website says 81 percent scored at or above 1100 on SAT so if you're a 1090, you're probably at the top of the 19 percent who scored lower. With a solid B plus average and being a minority, you definitely should apply!</p>
<p>This is the information on the ENROLLED freshmen at UB for 2007.</p>
<p>As it turns out you actually are slightly above the 25th percentile for ENROLLED freshmen. DON'T be confused with the ACCEPTED numbers that are often reported. Pointless if they are accepeted but don't enroll.</p>
<p>Per the data set:
CR 500 @ 25% & 610 @ 75%
M 540 @ 25% & 650 @ 75%</p>
<p>With your stats you actually have a shot at UB.</p>
<p>Per the data set:</p>
<p>CR 570 @ 25%
M 610 @ 25%</p>
<p>ACT - 25</p>
<p>You have to get the SAT up to have a shot at this school.</p>
<p>By the way you REALLY need to visit some of these more remote schools.
Then picture them in the middle of winter.
Cow tipping looses it's luster after a few weeks.</p>
<p>I will visit them around the fall. When I visit UB I will also visit Buff State. Thanks for all the help everyone, SUNY seems to be a very important option for me. </p>
<p>I always thought Albany was much harder to get into than Buffalo. I dont think I want to go to Albany tho because I heard the campus was depressing.</p>
<p>Yeah... I wrote a College Visit report with pictures you can check out:
<a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/visits/suny-at-albany/6448709.html%5B/url%5D">http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/visits/suny-at-albany/6448709.html</a></p>
<p>You are actually in their range.
V - 500 @ 25%, 590 @ 75%
M - 510 @ 25%, 610 @ 75%</p>
<p>ACT 22-26</p>
<p>Hard A HARD time finding this info. They seem to be deliberately burying it.
Had to go thru some strange national system (NCES) that they are on.</p>
<p>College</a> Navigator - Stony Brook University</p>
<p>V- 520 @ 25%, 620 @ 75%
M- 560 @ 25%, 660 @ 75%
W- 500 @ 25%, 610 @ 75%</p>
<p>So basically it appears that other than Bingotown you have a shot at all the schools on your original list.</p>
<p>Your GPA is decent, Any increase in your SAT that gets you away from the 25% will improve your chances.</p>
<p>NOT sure you want to apply to any of those out of state schools you listed.
You will more than likelly be paying the full out of state tuition. No value there.</p>
<p>Thanks for the pictures, they provided some insight. I cant picture myself at UAlbany because of the campus, it looks downright depressing in the winter. </p>
<p>xNYer thanks for all the stats it gave me some confidence in my stats. But I think I should apply to other schools besides SUNY's to have more options. Applying to all SUNY"s just feels wrong for some reason.</p>
<p>All that info is posted on Collegeboard too...</p>
<p>Yeah it is a good idea to look at more options. I wanted a big university with a lot of diversity at an affordable price so I just applied to all SUNYs. With some private schools, there is a chance that they could give so much financial aid that it equals out to the price of a SUNY or even lower.</p>
<p>If you do decide that you are interested in Stony Brook, I have a visit posted with pics from there too.
I am fairly new to the process with applying to SUNYs as I just did it last fall (Stony Brook, Albany, Oneonta, New Paltz). If yo uhave any questions I could try to help. I am heading off to SB this fall.</p>
<p>I'm not considering Stony Brook its too close to home (45 mins) and knowing me I would go home every weekend. That sandwich you made looked good tho lol.</p>
<p>Im going to apply to 1-2 privates, I dont know which ones yet.</p>
<p>oh my god hahahahahah I forgot to take that down thanks:P</p>
