Harpur College...is it worth it?

<p>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. </p>

<p>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.</p>
