<p>Will i get in? and if so how much merit aid do you think i will get if any?</p>

<p>Also i dont know much about the school could someone tell me the overall feel and environment of hofstra?</p>

<p>thanks a lot in advance.</p>

<p>I think that you have a pretty good chance of getting in. Check their average statistics…but I believe you are in their SAT/GPA range if not above it.</p>

<p>I don’t know a whole lot about Hofstra merit…I think that they are supposed to be pretty good about scholarships, but I am waiting to find out myself.</p>

<p>I visited Hofstra and I had a great experience. I was the only person signed up to visit that day, and there was a whiteboard that said my name and welcome and stuff…it was cute. We got there early so they gave us free coffee and stuff. When taking the tour, everyone was super friendly. The campus is beautiful, the dorms are actually really nice too. They have a really laid back greek life that is definitely not too big so I thought that was cool. They are so “up and coming” that they are getting a lot of attention recently which may mean more funding for research and stuff.</p>

<p>I really liked my visit, this is what I gathered, so I hope this helps!</p>
