<p>Does the finaid mean you need finaid, other than federal?</p>

<p>I don’t think your stats are good enough for the UW School of Business, if that’s what you’re looking at.</p>

5

<p>kayf - yes</p>

<p>Greenblue - You’re probably right, but it was worth a shot, right? I understand public OOS is a lot harder than the private schools I am applying to. </p>

<p>What do you guys think about Bentley and Northeastern? Those are my “to die for” schools.</p>

<p>IMO, your internships/ECs are carrying you, because your GPA is average at best. Straight Bs, especially with a B average in high school, isn’t enough for Northeastern (I don’t think). But it sounds like you’ve had a couple acceptances already, so you’re in good shape regardless of the outcome.</p>

12

<p>You’re right, my internships are pretty strong, and if I don’t get into NEU, then that’s ok. I really don’t want to stay at UAlbany though. Only one of my acceptances I’m even looking at is IUB</p>

<p>Bentley University is my top choice. Can anyone chance me for Bentley?</p>

<p>Update: BENTLEY UNIVERSITY
Went to transfer session/tour
Had an interview with director of transfer admissions which went REALLY WELL. I think she likes me a lot. I know my grades aren’t spectacular, but what do you think of my chances now??</p>

<p>I think you finaid at these places will be meager.</p>

16

<p>Dude you need to chill, do you think we really know the % increase in your chances based on you saying you had a conversation with someone at the school? Of course you had a good conversation with the Director of Transfer Admissions, you don’t get to be the director of admissions by being a jerk, generally people in that role have great people skills and are nice to everyone.</p>

<p>Just relax, enjoy your semester at SUNY and let the chips fall where they will. Good luck.</p>
