It really is a good idea to visit college open houses. SUNY EFS (Environmental Science and Forestry) was my daughters top pick for college. So we took a trip to open house on October 31, 2015 to check it out. It was looking good until we met with the head of admissions. The woman was so cold and dismissive, she did not listen and kept harping on financial aid which had nothing to do with the questions. Perhaps it was due to our casual dress, but realistically we have way to much money to need or qualify for financial aid. At any rate after meeting her we dropped all the ESF information into the trash and promptly exited the open house. Our daughter was visibly shaken by this encounter and does not want to have anything to do with ESF after meeting with admissions. The visit was a disaster!
