<p>Deferred does not mean rejected. During this time, students should still keep up with their work and extracurricular activities. Many of you still have a great chance! All deferred means is that you are put in a pool with our regular applicants. Please feel free to pm me with any questions!</p>
<p>Are we allowed to send mid year grades even if they don’t ask?</p>
<p>Most schools automatically send mid-year grades. It wouldn’t hurt to send them in!</p>
<p>do applicants who were deferred have a better chance of admission ?</p>
<p>What percent were accepted who were deferred initially last year?</p>
<p>Son accepted. 3.2 gap; 780 math/550 reading/675 writing. worked part time in retail throughout high school, honors band, performs solo: sing/guitar/piano, decent EC’s, creative essay. white male, non NY’er</p>
<p>Here is the email I got:</p>
<p>Thank you for your Early Action application to Binghamton University for fall 2013.</p>
<p>Your application demonstrated 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. </p>
<p>The Admissions Committee has recommended that your application be reviewed again for Regular Admission. You will have a decision from Binghamton no later than April 1. No additional information will be required.</p>
<p>As an early applicant you have shown enthusiasm for Binghamton University and being a part of our community. We appreciate your strong interest.</p>
<p>Yes, we received that as well. I haven’t heard of anyone being rejected.</p>
<p>Only accepted or deferred in Early Action? no rejected?</p>
<p>Seems like they are going through the RD’s first then maybe the deferred. Anyone here anything yet who was deferred?</p>
<p>My D applied early action and was Def to Reg Decision as well. She never rec’d an email from Bing and we rec’d nothing in the mail. (we only found out the decision by viewing Status Checker) I called admissions yesterday and they did confirm that she was Deferred and that the final deicisions would be out within the “next few weeks”. Just would like to know so she can move on and make a decision. The other one she is still waiting on is Stony Brook University. She applied 10/23/12, she has 4.00 un-weighted average, excellent EC’s but so-so SAT scores which I imagine is the issue for both schools. (and I am legacy SBU, which we all know means nothing)</p>
<p>hmm, S accepted at several schools including Buffalo, not sure if we should send the deposit in for rooming assignment or wait for Binghamton (his #1). This seems like one of the later schools with a response, works in their favor but not necessarily in the student’s. Good luck all!</p>
