<p>My D was accepted and would like to do this. She looked on the website and it does not seem to be an option. Does anyone know id this is even possible?</p>
<p>Hi again, Queen’s Mom! I had to call Binghamton admissions last month and asked about this. I was told they have an admitted students day in May (so AFTER you decide).</p>
<p>I would call and see what they can do for you.</p>
<p>Yuk, May!. OK, I’ll have D call and find out for sure.</p>
<p>Queen’s Mom - Binghamton does not offer overnight visits for admitted students. </p>
<p>The admitted students day, mentioned above, is a day where admitted students are allowed to come and see the campus again. It includes an info session and offers another campus tour. Many accepted students go to these admitted students’ days if they are not sure they want to go to Binghamton and they want to take another tour and see more stuff on campus. </p>
<p>Although Binghamton does not have a formal overnight program you Daughter is welcome to stay with someone she knows, if she knows any current students.</p>
<p>I guess they really don’t have a problem filling up a class at those prices so there is no need to offer overnight visits. It’s too bad. I would have liked to have that option for my S should he be accepted. Perhaps the alternative is to plan to visit a student you may already know. It won’t necessarily tell you what your classes will be like but it would give you a feel for the dorms, food and campus life in general. Do they still allow students to have overnight guests? Security is a bit tighter than when H and I were there! But come to think of it, I never even visited the school before my freshman orientation way back when!</p>
<p>Thanks for sneaking in there BingAmbassador…you answered my question.</p>
<p>Students are allowed to have guests in their dorm for 72 hours without having to get permission from their Resident Director, so a night or two is fine (assuming it is okay with the roommate/s). </p>
<p>In terms of sitting in on classes, we don’t have a formal program for that either but it is possible to do. If you contact the department you are interested in, you can find out about sitting in on a class. I know that when I was a prospective student, I called the psychology department about a week before I went and they told me what classes were being held at the time I was visiting. They said that I should have no problem sitting in on a class. This being said, it is much easier to sit in on a large lecture than a smaller class. Sitting in on a class can be very enlightening for the prospective student and it also allows them to get a better feel of what they are going to be doing if they attend the school.</p>
<p>Thanks for the info. I guess we have to think of something else to allow D to see the school and sit in on classes.</p>
<p>QM: sending you a PM</p>
<p>Queen’s mom, are you instate or out of state and when did your daughter apply? Has Binghamton provided you with a way to make your deposits yet? Thanks.</p>
<p>MTPockets, we are OOS and can pay the deposit either by mail (they sent a postcard with the acceptance) or online using a pin code. D applied in November-definitely before Thanksgiving but don’t remember exactly when.</p>
