Accelerated Bachelor Stony Brook vs Downstate

U.S.A. New York

Published

Hi, I'm new to the site. I was accepted to both SUNY Stony Brook and Downstate's Accelerated Bacholors. I feel very lucky, while I'm leaning toward Stony Brook I'm wondering if anyone has any insight to the programs.

Does any one have any idea what time the classes are this summer and this fall.

Thanks

Congratulations!!! I have also applied to both schools and am still waiting to hear from Downstate and SB (2 year program). When did you receive your acceptance letter from Downstate?

Thanks, I heard from Downstate about two weeks ago and Stony Brook about 4 weeks ago(12 month program) I sent a deposit to Stony Brook and will tell Downstate that I am not accepting their offer. Basically I need to finish as fast as possible. I'm getting a little nervous about the work load and the commute, but I'm excited to make the change Good Luck!! I hope you hear soon. I know how frustrating the wait is

i think your decision should be primarily based on where you live. if you live in brooklyn or manhattan, are you wiling to travel all the way to stony brook?

or if you live in between these two schools and you don't care about driving too far there are other factors to consider. if i am not mistaken downstate's program lasts 15 months and stony brook's only 12. stony brook will have plenty of parking, whereas downstate will not. i have a friend nurse who went to stony brook and she loved it.

i personally did not want to sit in traffic every day, i live in brooklyn so applied and gotten into downstate.

but anyway, congratulations! whatever choice you'll make it will be the right one! :yeah:
