Can’t you apply to EOP for Stonybrook.
I think this page may be helpful:http://www.stonybrook.edu/eopaim/about.shtml
To be eligible:" you must be a New York State resident for 12 months prior to enrollment.
-Ineligible for admission under traditional standards, but demonstrate potential for completing a college program; and
-In need of financial assistance within legislated income guidelines. In selecting students for the program, priority is given to applicants from historically disadvantaged backgrounds. If in the year prior to enrollment your family income falls within EOP guidelines due to unemployment, separation, divorce or death of a parent, etc., you may still not qualify for EOP if you are not from an historically disadvantaged background.
Be a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident.
-Have received a New York State high school diploma or its equivalent.
-Meet the Income Guidelines specified in the column below (priority will be given to “applicants from families characterized by historical, educational, economic and cultural disadvantagement)”
To be eligible you MUST have at least a CR+M of 900 and there’s a couple of other requirements,but just click on the link I provided and click on eligibility and it will give you more information.
Hope that was helpful and good luck with admissions
