Stony Brook Fall 2014 accepted/rejected

@lilaw88‌ I see. Thank you for the info. If you don’t mind, I have some more questions. How many classes does your son take per week? Is life as a freshman overwhelming with the work? And how long are the introductory classes? Sorry for all the questions.

@lilaw88 hope your son is liking it now that he is there. Interested to hear how it’s going for him.

My son takes 16 credits a semester. Five regular classes at 3 credits apiece plus a 1 credit required freshman seminar. He works hard at school but still has time to have a s

Have a social life and work one day a week. He has one roommate and is in a suite. He did well first semester and loves SB

Great to hear!

@lilaw88‌ what is his major, and is he involved in any clubs, sports,etc? Hope you don’t mind the questions. Son is seriously considering attending and just trying to get a feel from current studetns/parents.

@lilaw88‌ @Sapphire50‌ Sorry to bother you as well. Thanks for your reply. Is he taking 16 credits because he had so many credits transferred over? Also, are the class sizes a factor for him considering they are fairly large? Does he find himself independently learning material? Sorry again I’m just very curious. :stuck_out_tongue:

@lilaw88‌

@lilaw88‌ Any updates on his experience?

He made deans list last semester. He loves SB.

@lilaw88‌ That’s awesome! I’m sorry for all the questions. I still haven’t heard back from them yet. I remember you said that your son was waitlisted and later accepted. In between than process, did you have to do anything in terms of paperwork or calls? The deadline is a couple of weeks away and there are few acceptances left according to Chris from sbuadmissions.

@connetquotreppin‌ What are your stats?

He was waitlisted on 3/28 and accepted on 4/22.

How do you appeal a rejection from Stonybrook?
