<p>Hi, I was wondering if there is a specific reason why OOS admissions are only around 9%. This school has very good stats and I would think there would be great interest at least from surrounding NE areas, particularly given the not so expensive OOS tuition. So my question is: will OOS applicant have the same chance as NYS resident or there is some sort of preference to in-state applicants.</p>
<p>No, preference is to OOS.</p>
<p>This is a SUNY and they try to maintain a large percentage of in state students.</p>
<p>It is a SUNY, so by default, most students there are from New York. But being OOS won’t hurt you. All colleges want students from all the states because it looks better on their stats.</p>
<p>I’m sure the SUNY’s welcome the OOS tuition also.</p>
<p>Oh, and another reason there aren’t a lot is because usually if a student has the oppotunity to go OOS, they go to a big state university or whatever. With a college town, football team, etc etc</p>
