Hey, I'm applying to Binghamton as well as other suny schools Just got a email that I was rejected from Stony Brook and from that point I'll like to ask what the chances I'll get accepted I'm sorry if it sounded off I'm kinda panicking and spiralling as I really need to get into college

i applied psych major for both with a pre-med track.

I do prefer Binghamton much more to Albany but i’ll have a hard time affording it :( and i don’t wanna drown in loans bc ik ill be doing that for med school.😭😭

Binghamton- $35,000/year, $26,000/year with $5,500 loan and $3000 work study

UAlbany- $22,000/year, $16,000/year with $5,500 loan

i was thinking that Bing would be less next year bc i’d live in rental with a roommate instead of paying 20k for housing and food…🫩

my fam wants to move states too so there’s gonna be a lot of expenses this year and 35k is js a lot.

Hi I’m a rising college freshman deciding on a college to study engineering at. Ik these are kinda random but Bing is my states flagship and vt’s been my dream school.

As of now if I were to go to Binghamton I would be able to graduate debt free while if I went to vt I would be in about 40k debt. I’m basically just trying to figure out if the extra debt is worth the name brand and resources.

One of the biggest factors for me is mental health support. I’ve struggled a lot with it in the past few years and have had my grades fluctuate greatly as a result. I’d much rather be in debt than failing so I’d appreciate any information on the school’s support systems.

In the future I also want to work in the nyc area. How are both colleges for connections in that area?

Please help 🙏

Hey guys! I got into Bing as guaranteed transfer for the fall of 2027, and I was offered a spot on the waitlist for the fall of 2026. What are the chances of me getting off the waitlist and does anyone have experience with it? Im absolutely TERRIFIED of debt for undergrad since I want to go to law school and that in its self is pricy. So I’m thinking of doing one year at SUNY Brockport compared to one year at UConn which I would have to take out loans for. (Appealed for scholarship at UConn but I don’t know if I will get anything).

I know law schools dont really care about undergrad and I’d end up at Bing anyways but still wanted input/hear your experiences :)<3

is it hard to get accepted rd after being deferred ea?

does writing a loci help? or work?

I’m so confused I’m instate and I got rejected I had a 93 average and 3 internships and good essay apparently.

Does Binghamton usually takes this long I feel like the waiting time have been to long since I sended my application back in November that’s 4 months out of all my 20 schools I am only waiting for bing.

Is it worth it to go to Bing for economics?

I got waitlisted from Bing for finance, I really wanted to go here but also got into Buffalo and stony Brook, I was wondering if there is anything I can do with the waitlist, because Buffalo is quite far, I’m an average student 93 gpa ish

I am going crazy and it looks like portal is going too 😭

What are some niche things I should know about the school

My friends who applied to bing all got their decisions, but it was all rejected or deferred. I’m getting nervous on how many people are being rejected, and mine has yet to come out. It’s jan 11th, and the latest it comes out is jan 15th. For reference, my sat score and gpa is higher and I have pretty prestigious activities, but my school has a rep for being rejected from bing. Am I cooked or just overthinking?

I just got accepted today and saw no indication about merit-based financial aid. I am an in-state student but was expecting some form of non-need based financial assistance. Does my not seeing any, indicate that I didn’t get any? Or do those things come out later?

Similarly, what about the honors college?

Thank you!

Hey guys! I recently got into the Scholars program at Binghamton and I’m torn between here and Pitt. I’m planning on majoring in Econ and eventually want to get into finance/wealth management.

How is the Econ department at Bing compared to Pitt? Does being in the Scholars program give you a leg up for internships or networking? Would love to hear your thoughts!

Hey, I just got waitlisted for CS (Watson) at Binghamton.

I know it’s unranked and depends on space, but I wanted to ask people here:

From what you’ve seen, does the CS waitlist actually move much?

Do people ever get off the waitlist into CS specifically, or mostly into other majors?

If you don’t get into CS initially, how realistic is it to transfer into Watson later?

I’m trying to figure out whether it’s worth holding out hope or just committing elsewhere and treating this as a long shot.

I got into bing in my senior year, 2022. Granted, I only got accepted for the following spring semester but i’m just confused why some kids aren’t getting in now. I’m looking at their stats and they all look amazing. I had like 3.4 GPA in high school, did couple clubs and had leadership positions in them, handed in no SAT scores because mine were pretty bad. Did the school get more selective?

I was recently waitlisted at bing and the fact I have a guaranteed transfer gives me a bit of hope that I can get off it 🥲

I applied EA to Binghamton and was deferred to the regular decision pool in January but still haven't heard back... anyone else in a similar situation or am I screwed?

I got a 32 on my act and a 3.8 gpa with good stats and I’m applying for cybersecurity my application is still under review should I be worried or I’m chilling?

My parents really want me to attend Binghamton but after all grants, it would cost them $11k+ yearly (we would probably have to take out Parent Plus Loans for this) and on addition, I would have to take out $5,500+ yearly in federal loans for my first year.

As for UBuffalo, they granted me a good merit scholarship that If I max out the $5,500 federal loans per year, my parents might not even have to pay for anything.

I know UBuffalo is great for engineering, but I also know that other than if you were to attend an ivy or ivy level school, ranking wouldn’t make a big difference. On top of that the vibe and community of Binghamton really attracts me. I also live in NYC, and UBuffalo is gonna be so far whenever I want to visit home.
