Message: [QUOTE="DarthGrumpy, post: 4737469, member: 2141"] Agree, Stony Brook suffers from the UMass syndrom. A decent school in a region where everyone crosses the nearest available bridge to go to one of the surrounding private schools. Buffalo is strong in hard sciences and bio (and the only school I did not get into, though I got into UConn, UMaine, UDelaware, and Syracuse). Albany is know for business and I know several alumni who have done well in banking world in NYC after. Binghamton is still in liberal arts and sciences. On the smaller side, I don't know much about Purchase, but Geneseo has a rep as the more affordable version of the 'little Ivy's' while Cortland is the DIII jock school (going to the Ithaca v Cortland annual football game is a fun, sloppy mess). Out in California, in addtion to the big brands in Cal and and UCLA, UC San Diego, UC Santa Barbara, UC Irvine and UC Davis are all top 50 US News schools. [/QUOTE]
