Geneseo or Binghamton.... PLEASE HELP!

<p>Ok, so I was rejected from Binghamton University last year as an incoming freshman, but I got a guaranteed spring admit to Geneseo.</p>

<p>However, for some reason, even though I love both schools, I feel that Binghamton is just "for me." I am looking to do pre law. I am trying to see if it is even worth it to reapply to Binghamton for Fall 2011 (I am at a community college for first semester and will be going to Geneseo in the spring). Is Binghamton better for pre law or is Geneseo? What are the law school admittance rates for both schools?</p>

<p>I have a fear that if I get in, and go to Binghamton in Fall 2011, that when I apply to law school, going to 3 schools in 1 year (Community College ->Geneseo -> Binghamton) would look negatively upon my application. What are the thoughts on this? Any advice or help for this situation would be greatly appreciated as I'm going crazy right now over this decision.</p>

<p>Both schools are well regarded and provide an excellent education. I don’t think you can go wrong with either one. That being said, I would either give Geneseo a chance or just stay in the community college and apply to SUNY Binghamton as a transfer student. </p>

<p>If you have friends at either school maybe spend a weekend or two there, get a sense of the vibe on campus, and maybe then that will help you just focus on one of them. </p>

<p>I don’t think it is a great idea to start one school already planning to jump to another one unless it is a community college. It will take time for you to adjust to living away from home and meeting new friends. I wouldn’t complicate this by planning the next move. </p>

<p>I actually know someone who loved Binghamton, transferred out of Geneseo to Binghamton and then transferred back to Geneseo one year later because it wasn’t for her. I would try to figure out first whether or not Geneseo is where you would like to spend 3.5 years. If it isn’t then focus on getting into Binghamton as a transfer student. Getting in as a transfer student is usually easier at both of these schools.</p>

<p>Hope this helps.</p>
