What impressed you positively?

"The class size is very small, about 38 students. All the professors get to know you on a first name basis. It would probably be easy to get to know the faculty who appear so open and approachable. A student who wishes to specialize would probably like Stony Brook for this reason." Report Response

What impressed you negatively?

"This school discriminates against out of state applicants. Before the interview even began, the interviewer told me that he was suprised that I had recieved an interview becuase the school rarely accepts out of state applicants. I was told by a few students at the school that in the past 3 years, there have been no out of state residents. I was angry that I was invited for an interview but not be given serious consideration for a spot in class. It would have been better if they just rejected me with a letter instead of wasting my money and time. " Report Response

What are your general comments?
