<p>If any of you guys could tell me what my chances are for Binghamton Early Action would be great because I am still deciding whether to wait it out or just get it over with. Thx!</p>
<p>Last year the average gpa was 3.7 and the average ACT was 28. Based on this info you have a shot. No one is sure what the extra volume of apps this year will mean to new applicants. So far their apps are up 50% above last years. Another concern for many this year concerns dorm space. Last year they had many more people accept admissions spaces than they usually get and this caused a large number of forced triples that still have not been resoved. The school seems overwhelmed. All these factors make admissions this year even more uncertain.</p>
<p>You're in. To lsd87's point, I think that the admission standards will rise slightly this year, but nothing major. I also believe that there will be a larger waiting list than usual, but a fairly high acceptance rate off that list due to the number of top students that will choose to go to private schools after they see what financial aid/loans they can get. . Most will end up making the decision to go private despite a shaky economy. I don't think you have anything to worry about but good luck.</p>
