<p>awwh. I think they may be doing it alphabetically because I know friends of mine with last names in the s and o's who haven't heard. </p>
<p>It also may depend on who your admissions counselor is, it varies for each region.</p>
<p>I'm an "L"...</p>
<p>I don't think they're doing it alphabetically because my last name begins with "y" and I got my decision on Wednesday. Freestyla don't worry about it too much..everything will be okay. =)</p>
<p>But it can also vary on your location, because each region has a different admissions officer. So it may depend on that too!</p>
<p>anyone knows anything about scholarships? Do they come with the admission letter?...I really dont know if I qualify for anything...but just being curious...because the big part of me going to Binghamton is getting some financial aid</p>
<p>Viperm90, I'm not sure about scholarships. But they can't let you know about financial aid until after you fill out FAFSA, which you can't do until after jan. 1st!</p>
<p>And that's another problem of mine, the only reason I wouldn't go to Binghamton, other than if Brown gives me a full ride and a miracle occurs, is the money issue.</p>
<p>I'm just praying it all works out in the end.</p>
<p>Money at Bing is seriously an issue for you guys?</p>
<p>I thought the place was as cheap as it gets... And I heard that they give little financial aid because of how inexpensive tuition already is.</p>
<p>Bing is pretty cheap, but do you have 17 grand in your pocket for each year you attend school!?</p>
<p>And through FAFSA and TAP, you can get financial aid as well. Not just through the school.</p>
<p>Im OOS so as cheap as it is it still comes out to be around 21k (total cost of attendance)...which I CANT afford...If the price doesnt come down somehow to like around 10k...whther its through grants scholarships or whatever (not loans!!)..I simply wont attened...I jsut cant afford that...considering I am paying for college tuition all by myself</p>
<p>btw pefected, what's TAP?</p>
<p>Viperm90, Tuition Assistance Program, it's a New York State financial aid thing. I'm sure whichever state you're from has something equivalent. </p>
<p>Only, I think TAP, or a state fin. aid program only applies if you're going to school in-state, but I'm not positive on that.</p>
<p>TAP is for New York students at New York colleges. I think the family has to make under $80,000. 21K is really good for OOS; as a New York resident, my kids would pay about $30,000-$40,000 to go to state college in any other state! But its all expensive if you're going full time and have to pay the whole thing yourself.</p>
<p>Agreed with Muffy.</p>
<p>I loved Binghamton when I went to visit but I found out that they dont have a football team, that was a huge disappointment to me.</p>
<p>haha slugger...its a dissapointment to all sports fans on bing's campus, but having a football team doesnt make economic sense for the school just yet.</p>
<p>Anyone else hear yet?</p>
