Financial aid award offers for 2023-24 & timeline
All admitted students, who filed a FAFSA and had it sent to Binghamton University, will receive an e-notification financial aid award offer to the email listed on the FAFSA. The email will be sent from Financial Aid Services in November for spring 2023 admission and late February for fall 2023 admission.

[alpine karma]

thanks

[quiet bluff]

News for y'all

Gov. Kathy Hochul’s proposed tuition hikes for SUNY and CUNY schools have alarmed student advocates, who say the financial hit comes at the worst time.

Hochul on Tuesday pitched 3% annual tuition increases for in-state SUNY and CUNY students — and hikes of up to 6% at the state’s flagship universities in Albany, Buffalo, Binghamton and Stony Brook. The increases would go into effect next fall.

https://gothamist.com/news/cuny-suny-students-decry-hochuls-proposed-tuition-hikes

[pure chasm]

Honestly almost every uni I’ve seen has hiked tuition by around that now that the pandemic is over

[snow meteor]

[raven radish]

Rd you mean?

[snow meteor]

i thought it was rolling though

[raven radish]

Quote from my college counselor: “Binghamton releases things absolutely randomly at random times in random patterns”

[snow meteor]

fun

well ty for lmk

[alpine karma]

wassup bing

[mild kindle]

bing search engine + hampton inn = suny binghampton??!?!

sheesh

tryna get into cuny duckduckgoembassy

(embassy suites is a thing right okay yes it is)

[alpine karma]

Embassy not happy u spelled “Binghamton” wrong

[mild kindle]

Oh my bad

[quiet bluff]

what

[snow meteor]

what types of acceptances does binghamton have? are there conditional acceptances where like you have to pass x classes to get into the real binghamton school?

[alpine karma]

mines just says i got into watson. the letter doesn't even touch on my major nor did it even have the words computer science so i really dk

[snow meteor]

hm

[alpine karma]

even if it's direct admission, im choosing the conditional at sbu for cs but that's just me

[snow meteor]

what's the conditional again?

[alpine karma]

its AOI at stony but you just have the pass 3 cs class with flying colors

[snow meteor]

what's AOI?

[alpine karma]

area of interest

[snow meteor]

i dont get it

[alpine karma]

https://www.stonybrook.edu/sb/bulletin/current/academicprograms/cse/degreesandrequirements.php

[snow meteor]

ty

im uh

well hoping that i get into both binghamton and stonybrook

assuming that I hopefully do

idk which I'd choose

on one hand lots of people from my community in America go to binghamton

on the other hand Stony is way better for cs

and I dont really mind meeting new people so

[alpine karma]

oh thing about binghamton is its 3 hrs away from nyc

[snow meteor]

how far away is sb?

[alpine karma]

1 hr and 30

[snow meteor]

solid

[alpine karma]

eh not much of a difference

ur a intl?

[snow meteor]

for NYU yes, for every other school no

I'm an American citizen

[alpine karma]

oh u applied to non nyc nyu campus?

[snow meteor]

no I applied to the NY campus

pretty much (from what ive seen) every school considers citizens not international students

besides NYU

which considers everyone that doesnt go to a HS in the US international

[alpine karma]

oooh

nyu is so difficult

[snow meteor]

yeah i dont have high expectations

[alpine karma]

not only they think highly of me but also give good aid

[snow meteor]

i know that my supplements and personal statement are great

but some of my grades/the fact that im test optional gives me some doubt

[alpine karma]

30k and 80 k is huge

[snow meteor]

ig my ECs too but I have a reason for that

[snow meteor]

wdym

[alpine karma]

like assuming they accept (pls pls), they also have to give good financial package

[snow meteor]

that's good

[alpine karma]

if they're looking for leadership positions, im done for. i have good ec's just not that

[snow meteor]

NYU has more prestige than the sunys which is something but i dont think it's better for CS

[snow meteor]

lmao

[alpine karma]

i'm also at a new school this year, so nyu should understand tho

[snow meteor]

same but for junior and senior year

[alpine karma]

i went to 3 different hs

its so hard to get stable

[snow meteor]

2 for me

yeah i get it

[alpine karma]

good luck on ur decision from sbu and binghamton !

[snow meteor]

u2 my friend

[civic goblet]

did they release financial aid packages?

where do i check

nvm

[raven radish]

Did they?

Oh n

Nvm

The picture didn’t i#load

[round rose]

1510 superscore, 4 AP (3 were stem) for mechanical engineering i think

wb everyone else

[alpine karma]

[grizzled kestrel]

Congrats 🎉

[grizzled kestrel]

Premed, 1470, 3.6-3.7 gpa and 5 aps

Got in a while back since I submitted my application very early on

This was my 2nd school to come out

[round rose]

nioce

[raven radish]

How do I reject Binghamton???

There’s no button on the portal

[alpine karma]

Dang u wanna reject bing already

I was thinking wait for financial aid package lol

At least what I’m doing

[raven radish]

I got in ed2 I mean

To another school

[alpine karma]

oh congrats

u of rochester is a great school

was ur fin aid package good for it?

[raven radish]

Pretty good! We negotiated for more though and they gave it to us

Ofc it wasn’t like a full ride but it was pretty decent

[alpine karma]

nice. good luck at URoch! 4 years will go by fast 😂

[undone plover]

how do you know if you got any scholarship money??

[alpine karma]

Don’t think bing has released them yet?

At least not for me

[quiet bluff]

anyone have finaid packs yet 👀

[versed tartan]

Ye I got mine in like December

[quiet bluff]

How

tf

[versed tartan]

It was like 20-25k a year or sum

[quiet bluff]

bro applied EEA

[versed tartan]

Yea

[pure chasm]

How it says mid-Feb???

[quiet bluff]

Bro applied EEEA

bro @versed tartan wym

[versed tartan]

Actually I think it was merit aid

But it was still aid

[quiet bluff]

Scholarship wasn't it

man i ain't gettin no scholarships

couldn't care enough about maximizing my grades during 10th/11th

[versed tartan]

Bro I only got a 3.895 and a 32 ACT

most of the ppl here beat me by miles

[quiet bluff]

"only" man i don't even have a GPA

[mild kindle]

OMG CONGRATS ON ROCHESTER

[snow meteor]

does binghamton do grants or loans

[versed tartan]

Idk

[alpine karma]

Nah bro prob upcoming weeks

Maybe tmr who knows

[quiet bluff]

If mine is 40+k like it is for ualbany imma scream

[alpine karma]

u didn't get a 10k yearly merit from bing?

[quiet bluff]

No 🤣

Nothing but SOM acceptance

[alpine karma]

oof

stony didn't give any so im not expecting any from bing lol

[quiet bluff]

I'm just hopin it'll cost me the in-state price ngl

Cause even tho I don't live in NYC my parents both paid income tax for 21

Dad up to 22

[alpine karma]

hope so too even tho bing is pretty much out of consideration unless they offer need based aid up to full ride which aint gonna happen cuz im oos

[quiet bluff]

Right

[pure chasm]

SUNYs give basically no merit to instate kids

[alpine karma]

L, they really want yall to pay full price

[pure chasm]

So the free week apparently worked...

Apparently it's above 50k applicants now

[versed tartan]

What free weekend

[pure chasm]

In october-november they had a free week

for applying

applications went up 20% over last year

[versed tartan]

Ah

[unborn heron]

where did you see that

[pure chasm]

State of the university speech

[round rose]

Got pres. 14k a year oos

[frank vigil]

Congrats

[pure chasm]

Bing had more applicants the Virginia Tech with a 13% lower acceptance rate 😵‍💫

[snow meteor]

I thought Vtech had a 20% acceptance rate

[alpine karma]

no shot bing has a 7% acceptance rate

[versed tartan]

It’s like 44%

[alpine karma]

Bing goes bing

[pure chasm]

Nah

[alpine karma]

This year already came out?

Or is this cds from last year?

[pure chasm]

That’s VTech from last year

[alpine karma]

That’s like 55% acceptance rate. Nowhere close to 20

[pure chasm]

Yeah

[grizzled kestrel]

Wait it does?

Is Binghamton prestigious?

Or something?

Rutgers nb vs Binghamton

I got in with a scholarship so…

[alpine karma]

no its not

low 40's i think

[grizzled kestrel]

Yeah

It cant be 7%

[alpine karma]

selective yes prestigious no

at least not yet

[grizzled kestrel]

It was much higher last year

[alpine karma]

rutgers

cuz even with bing's 10k yearly

rutger still cheaper i think

[grizzled kestrel]

I’m in state so I got that benefit 💪

For Rutgers

Also I could commute after the first year I think

So living expenses would be low

Fair fair

[alpine karma]

rutgers should be every nj resident first and top option considering price

[grizzled kestrel]

Except Princeton

[alpine karma]

i have to live on campus for 4 years if so

[grizzled kestrel]

Nah you could move off it 2Nd year

[alpine karma]

how can i forget the number 1 school in the nation

[grizzled kestrel]

Rent something out in the town

[alpine karma]

ah fr. nice

[pure chasm]

Mid 30’s fs this year

[alpine karma]

u think same for stony?

[pure chasm]

Probably

[grizzled kestrel]

It’s close to most people int eh Northern half of NJ

[pure chasm]

Idk about Stony, but Bing had a 20% increase in applicants in one year

[alpine karma]

dang i went crazy then

[alpine karma]

tuition tho.

is bing even good for cs?

only ppl i heard say bing is better than sbu are people majoring in cs at bing

[grizzled kestrel]

I’d take the loans for #1 ranked school in America

It’s worth it

Every bit

[grizzled kestrel]

I’m Premed. I’ve heard they’re good for Premed students

[pure chasm]

SB is generally better than Bing at STEM

[alpine karma]

that yes. nursing op

[pure chasm]

Bing has a far better social scene though

[alpine karma]

far better 😭 is it tho

[pure chasm]

Yes

Like, by a lot

[alpine karma]

dang sbu step it up

[grizzled kestrel]

Rlly?

[pure chasm]

Bing is like pretty much every other state school with a college town socially (minus the football)

[alpine karma]

if only bing was in the middle of nowhere

[grizzled kestrel]

So you’re saying that Bing has a better social scene than Stony Brook or Rutegrs?

[alpine karma]

rutgers is way better

[pure chasm]

Maybe not Rutgers

[alpine karma]

lol

[pure chasm]

But sb yeah

[alpine karma]

rutger is d1 team hard to beat for bing

which is d3 right

for like other sports

[pure chasm]

No they’re D1

Just no football

Not power 5 or anything

[alpine karma]

fr woah

[pure chasm]

But still D1

[grizzled kestrel]

Rutgers is a big 10 school

With a big name in the region

[alpine karma]

bing has a good basketball team??

[pure chasm]

They played Stanford in the tourney

Oh

Basketball

They’re known for baseball atp

[grizzled kestrel]

Bing is well known in Northern Jersey, NY, and Eastern Pennsylvania

[alpine karma]

woah

[pure chasm]

Yeah they played Stanford in baseball

[grizzled kestrel]

Also Bing campus is walkeable

Compared to some other schools

[alpine karma]

it's beautiful

[pure chasm]

Very hilly

[alpine karma]

i mean omg the view

[pure chasm]

Depending on where you live

There’s the different residential communities ofc

Mountain View has an insane walk to get to your dorms from classes

[grizzled kestrel]

But Mountain View so view must make up for it right?

[alpine karma]

overall, the big 3 suny, UB, Bing, and SBU has been growing huge in popularity

[alpine karma]

take it as a exercise

[pure chasm]

You’d have to ask people who live there

[gaunt pollen]

Damn

[grizzled kestrel]

You got a long walk with a nice view or a shorter walk with a less nicer view

Depends on if they like nature

Or hate walking

[alpine karma]

perfect place to take pictures

[pure chasm]

Granted some of the other dorm communities are newer and closer to your classes

Like Dickinson

Or hinman which just got a really nice dining hall

Also idk if you guys know this but the student Union at Bing is really nice

[alpine karma]

every picture just better lmao

[pure chasm]

Plus the food is apparently pretty good

[quiet bluff]

Anyone have finaid packs yet???

[graceful wind]

they gave me a full ride

jkjk

but i got 10k

in state

[quiet bluff]

That's nice

[pure chasm]

Wait like for finaid? Or scholarship?

[alpine karma]

Should be merit

Cuz that’s the amount I got

[graceful wind]

merit, im getting 0 aid from the gov lol

[pure chasm]

Oh that might be why

They said when they came into my school that in state kids generally don’t get merit because they get need based aid

[graceful wind]

some of my friends got merit aid from ub bing and sbu so idk

we're all in state

[pure chasm]

Yeah bing specifically said that though,

[pure chasm]

when finaid

[alpine karma]

right they said mid feb

and it's already mid feb

this friday maybe

[green gulch]

did anyone get an email abt the first year research immersion?

[graceful wind]

i want my decision back already i applied in December it’s killing me!!!!!

[snow meteor]

fr i wanna know if i got in already lmao

[pure chasm]

Got $5,500 in loans in-state

[alpine karma]

Same but oos

No aid essentially outside of the 10k per year merit

Welp bye bye bing lol

[raven radish]

Bing sent my fun aid

Awkward I forgot to withdraw

6k a year isn’t too bad

[alpine karma]

In aid or coa

[quiet bluff]

Finaid time

[alpine karma]

What u got

[quiet bluff]

Idk I don't have my login info saved on my phone so I'mma just check on my PC later

Will ping u

[alpine karma]

Alright

I got nothing lol

Only the 10k merit hahshdjnd

[quiet bluff]

I am worried about what I'll get cause ualbany didn't put me as in-state

THAT BEING SAID

Binghamton has WhatsApp so hopefully I can fix any problems easily

[alpine karma]

And that’s why it’s not a top 3 suny lol

[quiet bluff]

Lmao well I'm not gonna say nothin until I see 30k for bing 🤣

[alpine karma]

Won’t changed the fact UB Bing and SBU is the trio of suny 😂

[quiet bluff]

Nice

[raven radish]

Oh cost

[quiet bluff]

BRUH

[raven radish]

Yeah- 24k college total is WILD

[alpine karma]

[alpine karma]

[quiet bluff]

• evidence of formal schooling there from birth to middle schol

[quiet bluff]

[alpine karma]

[raven radish]

It’s ok I only need to pay 12k for Rochester not including loans el oh el

[wicked bridge]

Where tf is the business major round of decisions

[abstract cobalt]

I'm considering dipping bing to go to UConn

I'm honestly just salty bing didn't give me merit scholarships

[frank vigil]

Do they do merit scholars

If u dont do fafsa

[gaunt pollen]

They just came out

Finally

[abstract cobalt]

well my efc is over the cost of attendance for in state

so bing refuses to give me merit

[pure chasm]

Bing doesn’t give merit in state

[abstract cobalt]

rip

😢

[frank vigil]

Oh

[raven radish]

That’s not true??

I got merit

[pure chasm]

Well generally unless you’re under the EFC

They said as much when they came to my school, they don’t generally give merit to instate kids.

[frank vigil]

I didnt do fafsa

Would that result in no merit

[quiet bluff]

Any macaulays here?

[pure chasm]

That’s not a thing at Bing?

[alpine karma]

It’s not

Macaulay is the honors college for cuny

[quiet bluff]

Yeah, it's not

[pure chasm]

Yeah

[graceful wind]

[pure chasm]

[frank vigil]

[zenith copper]

[quiet bluff]

GO BEARCATS

how all y'all results today

[quiet bluff]

also: is this on top of bing's 30k???

[zenith copper]

Well shit

[quiet bluff]

Yikes

[frank vigil]

Guaranteed transfer?

[alpine karma]

uh this is NTI from singapore not bing lol

[quiet bluff]

this is bing study abroad through Stonybrook allowing for a semester at NTI

[alpine karma]

3 college interconnected

sounds like some complex stuff

[quiet bluff]

Aye

[quiet bluff]

I might not even go to Bing

[alpine karma]

too expensive

[quiet bluff]

The opposite, rather

It's cheap but my parents want me to stay in NYC

[alpine karma]

even if i were to go to a suny, stony brook is the better option plus cheaper

[quiet bluff]

so my 2nd best option is Fordham at 47k

[alpine karma]

so cuny?

oh nvm fordham

the one in manhattan or bronx

[quiet bluff]

I'm paying 30k for bing

[quiet bluff]

Bronx obv cause I need community

also there's like nothing at LC

[alpine karma]

u planning on staying nyc after college too?

[quiet bluff]

If I end up at Fordham, it's a 5-year master's then we'll see what happens

Looking to go from the business-finance major to an MS in Quant

[alpine karma]

did u apply to baruch?

they have a underrated business program

but it def doesn't carry any name weight like fordham

[quiet bluff]

I did

I got in

For...i forgot tbh LOL

[quiet bluff]

Resources too

[alpine karma]

47k quite expensive but u should be able to pay it off in the quant field

[quiet bluff]

Idk if you can go from Fordham into a job at Jane street but we'll see lol

[alpine karma]

What do they need? A Harvard degree?

[quiet bluff]

Ivy is nice, talkin Wharton, Yale, etc

NYU maybe but that's tough

Idk tho we'll see about 4 years master

[alpine karma]

Basically 8 years of school

[zenith copper]

yea but I’m prob not tryna do that

[quiet bluff]

What

[alpine karma]

Master and undergrad add up to like 6-8 years of school right

[quiet bluff]

Not at Fordham, that's a 4+1 program

MSQF

[alpine karma]

Oh nice

[ocean patrol]

is there a discord for admitted students

[hybrid valve]

If you're looking for information about student life and advice, Binghamton might still have some informational panels featuring students, otherwise I only know of a contact page on their website if you go to the main page -> scroll down to undergraduate admissions and click learn more -> contact -> student ambassadors

[tight solstice]

is there a student discord?

[graceful wind]

anyone know

how to withdraw your app?

[grizzled kestrel]

Well if you can’t find one just make one of your own

🤷‍♂️

I can share a server template with you if you want
