What students say PRO

From students' own posts on Reddit and admissions forums: self-reported, unverified, never used in your odds.

• Nearly all admits who named a round (about 38 of 44) applied Early Action; only about 6 said Regular Decision.
• Most admits who shared scores reported an SAT of about 1400 to 1590 (some ACT 33 to 36), with high grades.
• About 25 of 70 admits applied to engineering, computer science, or biomedical programmes, often with robotics or science competition leadership.
• Many admits (about 12) did research or published work, such as lab internships, hospital research, or papers.
• Many admits founded or led something: a club, nonprofit, small business, or school team.
• Students report Early Action deferrals are common for in-state applicants; deferred students move to the regular pool, and some are later admitted, though some are rejected.
• Students report waitlist offers can come in mid-April, sometimes by phone with a day to decide.
• Students report in-state admits often get no merit aid, while out-of-state admits more often get awards such as $13,500 a year.
• Students describe Binghamton as a likely safety for high-stat students, yet strong in-state applicants have been deferred or waitlisted.
• Students report decisions roll out unevenly, sometimes by region, and applicants may wait until late March or April 1 after a deferral.
