<p>I really don’t know much about transfer requirements/chances, but you seem on track to be a good candidate at Binghamton. Good SAT scores would probably have helped. I can see Oneonta being a very good shot, also maybe Rutgers. Cornell and Penn are very difficult, but I’m at Penn now so lemme know if you end up here :)</p>

<p>Hi, @rebeccar , thanks for your input! I’m going to submit my application to Binghamton on August 1st. I think it will be a shot in the dark, however, I’ll let you know how it goes. Also, although Binghamton does not require SAT submission, I might retaking it soon. </p>
