Suny Binghampton and Suny Stonybrook

<p>Hi everyone, it seems like everyone looking at SUNYs is always asking the same thing and i cannot say i am different. I am interested in SUNY Binghampton and Stonybrook however seeing reviews online has made me unsure of a decision. I am interested in Mechanical Engineering as a major and have heard that both schools have good programs but SB is a little better. My gpa is 3.74 and SAT is 1890 640CR 690Math 560Writing. I am confident in my ability to enter both schools however I'm unsure if one is right for me. I know my sister goes to SB and says there are a lot of international students and the weekends make the campus desolate where in Binghamption this seems to not be as apparent. I would have to dorm either way and I have visited both colleges. Anyway, just looking for opinions either way, thank you.</p>

I am going through the exact situation with my daughter. No decision has been made yet. Good luck!

I went on a tour at Binghamton and even though 3 out of the 5 students were interested in engineering, we just went in the building which seemed pretty gloomy, the tour guide said she didn’t know much about it, then we left. The whole tour and campus was great but engineering (which was only in one building) felt like an afterthought. had I gotten directly into the stony brook mechanical engineering, I would be going.
