<p>Does anyone know anything about the SUNY classes that are offered at Cornell? I've heard of it, but I can't find much about it. </p>
<p>Any information relating to pre-med would be extremely helpful =D</p>
<p>I think this is what you are referring to:</p>
<p><a href="http://www.cals.cornell.edu/%5B/url%5D">http://www.cals.cornell.edu/</a>
and

<p>Oy! not again. Cornell is the land grant college in NYS. (read your history- Morrell Act 1862 (?) ) It is not SUNY.<br>
but- the 3 UG state contract colleges at Cornell are: Industrial Labor Relations--Human Ec. and College of Ag. and Life Sciences (CALS).
My d is in the ILR program. The tuition for NYS residents for these 3 schools is about $18,000. I only wish it were SUNY tuition.</p>
<p>Are you interested in any particular program?? ILR may be more geared towards kids interested in social sciences
CALS is more science based
and Human Ec is a mixed bag</p>
<p>I'll try to answer some of your questions.<br>
The Cornell website has a nice explaination of the role of Cornell to the people of NY State.</p>
<p>sorry it took me so long to reply, i wasn't e-mailed that there had been any responses. i'll check that setting now.</p>
<p>the only reason i would be interested in suny is because my dad is in the militia and i go to suny for free. i am in the top 10% in my school and i think i would be able to get into higher level schools but since my parents recently got divorced, money is tight. besides any "free" college is worth looking into. especially if i make it into med school after. i might as well save my money when i can.</p>
<p>"the only reason i would be interested in suny is because my dad is in the militia and i go to suny for free. i am in the top 10% in my"</p>
<p>yea...i don't think you'll be going to the contract colleges of cornell for "free."
there is a difference between the State University of New York at Stonybrook and the NYS School of Industrial and Labor Relations of Cornell.</p>
<p>Hi. Under pressure-- I do believe that there are reduced tuition rates for military children at State universities but I do not know whether the Cornell contract colleges fall into that category- though it is certainly worth an inquiry. I do not think anyone on these boards can give you an accurate answer unless they too are in the military. </p>
<p>other little known SUNY programs are
SUNY Environmental Science and Forestry (ESF) housed in Syracuse University. Good for sciences. You live on Syracuse U campus and can take courses in State ESF program and also can take courses from Syracuse U. Check the website- I think you can definitely do a science/pre-med type of major at ESF.</p>
<p>and another SUNY progam is at Alfred University (don't confuse with SUNY Alfred Technical school) in the College of Ceramics. I don't quite get it but College of ceramics is connected to engineering / science program at Alfred. </p>
<p>Though you may be entitled to reduced tuition, my guess is you still need to meet regular admission standards at Cornell- so good luck with the application and admission process. My kid is now a senior in ILR.</p>
<p>I'm a typical NY Mom who likes a bargain- so I am aware of certain programs in NYS that fit the bill!! I hope I gave you some info on other SUNY programs to check out.
Don't overlook Stony Brook- Bing or Buffalo. They would certainly give you a good foundation towards medical school.</p>
<p>also- did you check out Sophie Davis (?) program at CUNY? I think that is a 7 or 8 year program with automatic acceptance to Medical school.
Do not know much about it- but check CUNY site for details!!</p>
<p>Apply to the best colleges and universities for which you qualify. Financial aid at many schools can be quite generous.</p>
<p>yeah i still need to find out where i could inquire about the whole reduced tuition idea. because my dad knows basically nothing and my guidance councellor at school is absolutely no help.</p>
<p>i am definitely looking at bing right now because its a good school and a good distance away from home at a lower price (being suny). i'm also not really interested in stonybrook because my uncle lives right down the block and i have a few reasons to distance myself from my family, at least for a while.</p>
<p>i never heard of the Sophie Davis program, so thank you for that information. i will definitely look into it =)</p>
<p>although i am still leaning towards a premed program, i am also looking into psychology/sociology. i'm basically just trying to keep my options open and look into as many possibilities as possible.</p>
<p>sorry for the huge delay in replies, for some reason the site refuses to send me notifications when someone posts a response, even though i have the email notification selected.</p>
<p>ok i have finally figured out that i have to subscribe to this thread, even though i created it. so i should be much quicker in my response time =)</p>
