<p>Daughter was Deferred...
Post when your status changes...</p>
<p>I’m interested in seeing the stats of those who were deferred compared to the accepted. I think it would also help other deferred students get a feel for what they should shoot for in beefing up their application:
Stats:
GPA:3.5
SAT: 1260/1880
Essay: Above Average (Written about brother with special needs)
Reccomendations: Good, 2 Reccomendations
Ethnicity: White
Extra Curriculars: Fairly Strong, multiple curriculars for a year or less, 2 that are 3+ years</p>
<p>I’m curious to see what others stats are because obviously I wasn’t a guarantee by any means, but a fairly competitive applicant.</p>

<p>Deferred as well.</p>
<p>Female. White. From New York.</p>
<p>3.5 GPA (90 on 100 point scale)</p>
<p>1220/1910</p>
<p>Didn’t send my ACT scores.</p>
<p>Some honors in my junior year. Taking an AP and a college-accredited class in my senior year. (My school doesn’t offer many APs and honors because it is a small, challenging private school.) Never dropped any major subjects (e.g. math, Spanish, science) upon entering my senior year.</p>
<p>Great essay. One school that accepted me complimented me for it.</p>
<p>Few, but strong ECs. I hold leadership positions on the school paper (as Editor-in-Chief this year and editor last year) and in our Video Club (as Vice President). I’ve been on the paper since sophomore year and on Video Club since freshman year. I’m also in the dramatic acting company (since soph.), National Honor Society, and Spanish Honor Society. I tutor inside of and outside of school. I also have two acceptance-only summer programs under my belt as well.</p>
<p>I had two letters sent out, and while I waived my right to see them, I feel like the letters were very good because I asked a teacher with whom I’ve spent much time (both in the classroom and in extracurriculars) and a teacher from a class I enjoyed but still struggled in.</p>
<p>I applied into Computer Science, so I was doubtful of my acceptance from the moment I sent out my application. Their program is incredibly competitive.</p>

<p>hhhmmmmmmm sensing a trend…</p>
<p>How did you guys find out you were deferred? I haven’t gotten an email and my status checker doesn’t say anything either…</p>
<p>I checked the Binghamton website. There’s a portal where you can track your application’s status.</p>
<p>Check the status checker:<a href=“https://buonline.binghamton.edu/banner/twbkwbis.P_WWWLogin[/url]”>https://buonline.binghamton.edu/banner/twbkwbis.P_WWWLogin</a></p>
<p>Forgot to say top 15% ranked</p>
<p>To the person asking about their status checker not saying anything: look through it I almost missed it. I was expecting it to be big and bold or a letter. It’s just in the second column about half way down the chart. After it says school you applied to and entry term it says decision or admission decision and in the next column it soda deferred to reg decision</p>
<p>There is a trend…compared to here and accepted.</p>
<p>Got deferred from SOM</p>
<p>What school were you applying to?</p>
