<p>This is my first post here so I apologize if this is in the incorrect forum...</p>
<p>I want to major in computer science or information technology, my goal in the future is to enter the IT field. I'm currently a High School Senior. I live in Southern New York (close to NYC), and I am currently looking at different schools. I do not want to travel too far, I prefer schools in NY or schools in bordering states. </p>
<p>So far, I'm interested in NYU as my reach school, NYIT, and U of Bridgeport as my safety. I haven't done any college visits (planning on doing it for NYIT soon...I know I'm a bad procrastinator..)</p>
<p>What are some good state schools for IT/CS? SUNY's? I would like to live on campus as well</p>
<p>SAT: 1520
ACT: 25</p>
<p>(Taking SAT again in October)</p>
<p>My average is in the lower to mid 80's, but I have a handful of extracurricular activities (sports + clubs), along with over 300 confirmed volunteer hours over Sophmore/Junior year (Dunno if this will help my chances...?)</p>
<p>Again I really dont know a lot about this so please have some patience with me...I promise I'll try to help everyone back as much as I can! :)</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
