Transfering to Stony Brook from Fordham

<p>I am a current Fordham freshmen. I am a biology major with a 3.9+ GPA, pursuing the Pre-med track. I am considering transferring to Stony Brook primarily due to their strong science department and available research opportunities/resources. Should I transfer this incoming fall or stick to Fordham. The only thing that has me concerned is that Fordham is ranked in Top 50 and Stony Brook's ranking is 111 in US News. Any suggestions would be great.</p>

any suggestions?</p>

<p>If money is not an issue and you think you can get a 3.9+ at Fordham, I would say aim higher to challenge yourself and go to a good school for brand name recognition when applying for med schools. If you had a decent HS profile along with scores and ECs, try to aim for Johns Hopkins, Boston College, NYU CAS</p>
