<p>For accounting or finance. I'm having a hard time choosing, pace put me in their honors program, but I was rejected from Baruch's.</p>
<p>bumper time</p>
<p>CUNY baruch is better than pace. I don't know much about Pace's honors program, but should be decent. i would go to baruch, it is cheaper and it gives you a lot more for the money you spend. CUNY honors would have been excellent.</p>
<p>i got rejected from cuny honors but accepted to nyu stern, do you think i can appeal with that?</p>
<p>i don't think you can appeal their decision, I know you can't go to NYU for financial reasons, go the Baruch.</p>
<p>try to appeal but go to Baruch anyway</p>
<p>how do you get into stern but get rejected from cuny honors? That's the crziest thing i've ever heard.</p>
<p>its crazy but it happens sometimes. i think CUNY honors has a different criteria, that includes regents scores(state exams) and everything.</p>
<p>Yeah I did quite badly on several regents, but NYU did take these into consideration as they were on my transcript and I have heard this subject brought up with them.</p>
<p>Cuny Honors is very hard to get into, and they are pretty damn selective. I know a girl who is going to Cornell but got rejected to Cuny Honors.</p>
<p>CUNY honors is not that hard to get into, they fall for numbers thats all, they will take pretty dumb people with high SAT's, meanwhile other schools like Cornell, take a comprehensive look. a few people from my school got into CUNY honors that did not deserve to, while some really qualified candidates got waitlisted or rejected. sometimes it makes you wonder, do they flip a coin to determine the decision?</p>
<p>Not too true, I don't know a single person who got in who I would say is not qualified. 80 people got in from my school, with an avg of 94.</p>
<p>^What school do you attend?</p>
<p>well, it was true in my schools case,atleast for some students.</p>
<p>I heard that the honors chooses students from top high schools before they look at students from other high schools. This to me is quite a disappointment, apparantly if your parents weren't involved in your education in jhs (sent you to a cram school or got you a tutor for the specialized high school test) then you're pretty much written off for the rest of your NYC education.</p>
<p>Funny thing is, this girl got into harvard, but not CUNY Honors in my school.</p>
<p>is that possible?</p>
<p>not really true i come from a pretty mediocre high school and got into baruch honors. i also know someone who was waitlisted to baruch honors and accepted to stern. who knows? this may have been b/c of that 'nyc' essay they wanted. its definitely not state exam scores like regents b/c mine were pretty average.</p>
<p>EDIT: this is in reference to the comment about the cuny honors system looking into the top high schools first</p>
<p>i used the cuny honors essay for my nyu essay, in fact i used it for all of my colleges except for fordham (got into all of them by the way)</p>
<p>lol do you want to trade admissions?, you can go to stern in my place and ill go to cuny baruch honors in your place haha</p>
<p>i would seriously like that considering i was waitlisted to stern lol. you said you go into stern with that cuny honors essay? if u dont mind me asking, what was it on?</p>
