So, I was basically pressured by my parents to apply to ALL of the programs at SBU: The Honors College, Scholars for Medicine, University scholars, and WISE. I really only want to apply to the honors college, but I already submitted my common app and it said “Yes” when it asked if I wanted to apply to that program. I don’t know what to do and I feel so pressured by my parents to become a doctor. I want to go to Stony Brook but will it Hurt my general admission chances if I don’t apply to those programs that i said I would in the common app?
@sbuadmissions sorry for the bother, but what can I do?

You are first reviewed for general admission and then if admitted, your application will be reviewed for Honors Programs based on how you ranked each program. This does not affect the decision for general admission.
I’m not an expert but I doubt it. If you have to join the program after submitting the college application it will definitely not change anything.
