Ah, by grades, I meant = GPA + standardized scores. If the limit on CR is true, then that must be why I wasn’t accepted. In terms of GPA, there are people who are in the top 1% of ranking at my school who qualified for HEOP. So there isn’t a limit on GPA, but there is a limit on CR/SAT scores?


You are right about the loans in the package; I wish I could edit that in the OP to say that. However, I must say there is substantial amount of aid received from the schools. I also wasn’t aware about the financial aid at SUNY’s, interesting.

I noticed you’re mentioning HEOP a lot, but what about EOP (which the SUNY’s participate in)? Do you know if the guidelines are different?

It’s actually really great to have this information; my counselor told several of my classmates not to bother applying for such programs because their grades and ranking (not SAT scores) were too high. I’m headed to school right now, but thanks clearing some things up.
