<p>Just got rejected by Stony :/ I was hoping I would at least have it as one of my choices but I guess it wasn't meant to be. Sad day for me :(</p>
<p>It’s Ok, my brother goes there and he hates it. How did you find out? What are your STATS?</p>
<p>I find out by email today. These are my Stats:
SAT-Math: 570, CR: 440, W: 510
GPA: 96.35 (weighted); 94.04 (unweighted)
Rank: 17/316
I’m taking AP Stats this year. I’ve taken honor classes for math and science since 9th grade. I applied as undecided. My SAT scores are really low so that could’ve been a factor.</p>
<p>are you from NY and when did you apply?</p>
<p>Yeah I’m from New York and applied early December for RD.</p>
<p>Its okay. You can transfer in later. </p>
<p>Regarding Pokemon’s comments. I think everyone has different opinions of SB. I had a great time here, and I don’t regret coming here at all. Actually, If had the whole college process again, I would choose SBU.</p>
<p>Okay, thanks for your opinion. I’m not sure what I’ll do after my first year but I might think about doing that.</p>
<p>well i m feel like i m regret coming here… it’s the forth week now, i haven’t got any friends yet…sad</p>
<p>I’m sure in time you will make friends, you just gotta speak up and introduce yourself to people. There’s no harm in doing that. :)</p>
<p>Don’t feel bad about it. Think of it this way: it narrows down your college choice, and it’ll be easier to decide where to go now. Plus, if it wasn’t a top choice, no harm done.</p>
<p>Hell, at least you got a response. I applied in mid October and I haven’t gotten anything at all.</p>
<p>Yeah, I guess your right. I shouldn’t worry too much about it. Is Stony Brook your top choice or one of your top choices?</p>
<p>Definitely my top choice. I wanna do a STEM major (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math major), and SBU has awesome programs for that. Plus, I love the campus and it’s not too far from my home since it’s only in LI, but I can still dorm there to get a full experience. </p>
<p>And yet, it seems like I’ve been waiting an eternity. UAlbany already accepted me, and it’s also a pretty good school. CCNY’s Engineering School is gonna reply in 2-3 weeks. SBU is making it hard for me to decide to go there.</p>
<p>I got accepted to Albany too and I plan to visit there in April. Binghamton hasn’t replied as of yet. I also got accepted to Oneonta and New Paltz. I don’t know what I want to major in so I’m just going to go as undecided. </p>
<p>Sometimes these schools take a really long time to reply so I’m not surprised some people didn’t get anything yet. A couple of my friends are still waiting for SBU to reply. I hope you get accepted to Stony though. Do you mind if I ask what your STATS are?</p>
<p>GPA: 91.7/100.0 (About a 3.6) Rank: 16/198 SAT: 620 R/ 550 M/ 690 W Intended Major/AOI: Physics PossibleMinors: Electrical Engineering/Finance/Computer Science (I’d only pick one)</p>
<p>I have a lot of extra curriculars/awards/that sort of stuff.Too much to list, so I’ll just list the most important few:</p>
<p>Debate (Student Congress) (Captain all 4 years) Concert Senior Band (Trumpet/French Horn) (Section Leader) Advanced Jazz Band (Trumpet) Student Government- House System (Think: Harry Potter. Yes, I am the leader of a “House”, the Bonilla house) Varsity Handball Team- Doubles Player
National Honor Society (No office held) </p>
<p>I take the most rigorous course at my school. AP Physics, AP USHistory, AP English, Calculus, and a few electives.</p>
<p>Wow! I would be shocked if they didn’t accept you lol. The thing is I didn’t take any AP courses during 9th-11th grade which was something I should’ve done. I’m taking my first AP this year. It would’ve been a good experience to see how tough college tests would be because I know there is a BIG difference between high school and college work. AP English would’ve definitely helped me with my reading SAT score (I really hate English, it’s my worst subject).</p>

<p>I’ve take AP (Calc AB, Calc BC, Physics B, Physics C E & M, Physics C Kinematics, Chem, USH, Language)
Taking AP Micro and AP Lit this year, in addition to CL Sociology and Multi-variable Calc
I’ve also taken electrical/engineering classes all 4 years
all other classes were honors</p>
<p>I applied to Brandeis, Cornell, Fordham, NJIT, Stony Brook, Syracuse and RPI</p>
<p>I’ve only received an acceptance letter from NJIT. I’m pretty sure I’ll be accepted to SBU, but I’m really impatient. What do you guys think?</p>
<p>I think you’ll get in! You have extracurricular activities, a high SAT score and GPA, and you’ve taken a lot of AP courses. Colleges like to see that. You have a very good chance in getting in.</p>
<p>Do you think i have a chance of getting accepted into the honors program? </p>
<p>My intended major is physics.</p>
<p>It depends if there is a honors program for physics. You can look it up on their website. They should show the requirements in order to be in the honors program.</p>
