Yea but I don't think Brooklyn College has dorms.
Try to apply to NYU, sometimes they give out good scholarships, so you might get lucky. Also, try to go for Barnard, I think they also give out good scholarships.
You can also try St John's but I don't recommend it, it's quiet far from the city (1hr) subway ride and most of the people are commuters, plus the quality of education is mediocre.
Oh, also try Hunter, the location is ing awesome BUT, again I hear the quality of education is mediocre.
Hope this helps. |

She doesnt need Hunter or St. Johns.
NYU is USELESS to apply to unless you have outstanding grades and fill a racial quota they have.
Her best options are Downstate, Brooklyn Coll., Binghamton & Stony Brook. |

What do you mean she doesn't need to?
And you haven't answered me yet, Does Brooklyn College has dorms? If not where the hell is she gonna live dude.. it's pointless.
Binghampton is way upstate, so you might as well go to Ithaca which is ten times better. |

EHS is a non profit organization in which they supply cheap housing for students, regardless on where you study.
so basing your decision on dorms is flawed. |

it depends on her high school...NYU and Columbia's pre-med programs ARE outstanding and do accept a fair amount of ppl actually...who can afford it that is; and they do have scholarships available. at this point in her life she should be considering as many options as possible. she should throw her net OUT as far as possible n see what happens, even do early/rolling admissions. ppl have been accepted in programs that way who might have been waitlisted otherwise. and cmon, u still want a good to excellent school -- as long as its within New York State. to agree with vlad, I would definitely recommend Stonybrook and Brooklyn College to save $$$$ -- you could always find offcampus shares with fellow commuters most often cheaper than dorming. Dorming is hella expensive -- but if ur parents are going to foot everything, might as well *shruggs* stonybrook is only 1 hour + from the city... |
