<p>If you are going to be a junior, work hard on getting your gpa up. You will have a lot more options. UB is a very large school far from NYC and they get a huge amount of snow. I am not a huge fan of either UB or UA. My personal favorite is SUNY New Paltz…
1 1/2 hour drive to NYC, about 6,000 students, good diversity and a fun college town waliking distance to the school. Check it out.</p>
