<p>-I just recently graduated from my local community college with an associates degree (Nassau) and now I am looking to continue my education and transfer to receive my bachelor's degree. </p>
<p>-I want to be a journalism major and my gpa as of now is a 3.0. I got accepted to the three schools I applied for which are: SUNY Stony Brook, St.John's University (Queens campus) and CUNY Queens College. </p>
<p>-Now there are a couple of things that you should know, first off is that I would be a commuter student so traveling to stony brook I would be taking 2 trains there and back everyday. St.Johns and Queens are more convenient because they are sooo much closer to my house, maybe a 20 minute care ride. </p>
<p>-However I know Stony Brook has a really good Journalism program even though I know all three schools have programs for my major. Another thing is cost, I know Stony Brook and Queens would be cheaper in the long run because they are state and city schools but I read somewhere that st.johns gives really good scholarships and If you are a student who earned an Associate Degree from a community college prior to enrolling at St. John’s, you are now guaranteed a minimum 40% tuition discount.</p>
<p>Ultimately, which would be the BEST decision for me to make? Does it really matter which school I go to for the Journalism program? I am trying to consider travel, cost and program. Please help with my decision making process, thank you all so much. </p>
