To be completely honest with you, it is very difficult to get into SOM as a transfer from Harpur. You are taking a huge risk. There are many applicants but few spots. If you don’t get into SOM, it may not be worth pursuing a BA at Harpur if you intend to enter the work force since the financial type firms that do recruit at binghamton generally focus on SOM.

Since you are interested in finance, have you considered Baruch? They are very cheap and have a very high quality program especially for accounting and finance. Only downside is that it is a commuter school so there is no real campus. The upside is that you are right in new york city and have access to many opportunities even Binghamton students will miss.
