Letter of Interest

Colleges and Universities A-Z Binghamton University - SUNY

<p>Hi, my guidance counselor told me that Binghamton admissions called my school’s guidance office and told him to tell students to not to send any letters because SUNY Binghamton admissions would not read it and get irritated. </p>

<li>Does anyone know if this is true, and that you should not send a letter of interest to reaffirm your interest in attending Binghamton?</li>
</ol>

<p>Thanks for your help.</p>

<p>They just don’t want mounds of mail so by them saying that, kids won’t send anything.</p>

<p>But, I would send one and it will be read and it WILL be taken into account.</p>

<p>This was helpful for me</p>

<p>If you don’t want to do that maybe you can send an email to your regional officer (if you can find out who it is) re-affirming your interest. But, I think you should go for it and send a letter.</p>

<p>Binghamton has an unranked waitlist. By definition, an unranked waitlist is one in which all waitlisted applicants are equally qualified for a seat of admission, but were not offered a seat because the school literally ran out of room. </p>

<p>Sending letters should have no impact, but if you honestly think it will help, you might as well try. You don’t want any regrets.</p>

<p>I believe that if you are waitlisted, unfortunately there is nothing you can do other than wait. What I suggest is that if you are waitlisted, put a deposit down at another school so that you know you are going somewhere. If you do get in, you can always accept.</p>
