Rejected from my colleges, applied to 10 SUNY's yesterday... other options?

College Search & Selection

<p>Basically, life got in the way and my midyear report pretty much sucked, although I am taking a night class to make up for a class. my AP teacher absolutely had no sympathy for me going through the hardest time of my life, as well as others, it's far too late to explain to the ones I applied via Commonapp, hell even my safety school (UC Riverside) cancelled my application because I took Subject II tests same day and I had no idea how to send them since that option wasn't available online and now I'm just waiting for colleges that are matches, at this point I'm not even guaranteed to get to any college. This feeling terribly sucks as I devoted high school despite the setbacks to my grades and put aside everything my senior year so I can focus on college and to this day I still haven't gotten an acceptance, waiting on New York University, Syracuse, Fordham but I won't have a chance to explain my midyear.</p>

<p>I paid 500$+ and applied for 10 SUNY's & The King's College in New York & sent SAT I scores yesterday since they have no application deadlines, but I have a feeling I'm screwed as I applied in late March.</p>

<p>Right now at this point, I'm looking for any college preferably in New York to maybe just transfer to my dream school a year later, but I want to know how good are my chances to get into the SUNYs as well as if there are other colleges/options I can do. I am not a bad person, the worst is getting rid of horrible influences such as the friends I had growing up to focus on school, my parents have no idea and have not guided me through college and I've been on this whole fiasco solo dolo and it's a bit upsetting right now. The worst is having to take 6 AP's, a whole bunch of extracurriculars, and I feel as if my midyear is ruining everything. Thanks for your input.</p>

<p>I applied to:
New Paltz
Stony Brook
Buffalo College
Purchase
Geneseo
Albany
Buffalo University
Potsdam
Brockport
Oswego</p>

<p>You might want to try the CUNYs.</p>

<p>Queens, Hunter, City, and Baruch are the best of the CUNYs and students commonly transfer from there to the SUNYs. Some students even make it to the more prestigious schools (NYU, Columbia) from CUNYs.</p>

<p>I think CUNYs are rolling admissions.</p>

<p>Also, you could try Pace University, which isn’t that selective, or St. John’s University, which I also think is rolling.</p>

<p>Have you tried Hofstra…they still were trying to get my son to apply up to 2 weeks ago and promicing good aid.</p>
