I’ve never heard of SUNY Poly. Comparing stats, Binghamton seems to be more selective and have higher scores. At Bing, 91% return for soph year, 81% graduate in 6 years. At Poly, 74% return and only 49% graduate. I guess I’d be concerned about the low graduation rate - what’s the reason for that? I’d do some more research…look at what students from Poly are doing after graduation, or talk to some current ones. The difference between $100k and $0 (or are you paying room and board?) is huge, so even though I love Bing I wouldn’t take the decision lightly.
