Hi - my son just had an interview at Hofstra for their PALs program. We found out that only 35 students are accepted. We knew it was a small program but that number was so small we are concerned. I will contact Hofstra as well but does anyone know if he must get accepted into the PALs program in order to get accepted Hofstra OR can he get accepted to Hofstra without getting into the PALs program? He applied to Hofstra Test Optional, has wonderful recommendations and extra curricular activities but his GPA will be probably be a 3.0 - 3.1 (due to his LD) by the end of this current Senior year, first semester. Any insight is helpful.
