<p>For those with high stats who were rejected or waitlisted, don’t feel bad. I remember a lot of students from my high school faced this same issue with Macaulay. And then I found out that Macaulay is known for being unpredictable with admissions.

<p>I am looking to major in business to hopefully be an accountant. Which Macaulay honors is best for business? Thanks guys.</p>
<p>baruch, queens, or hunter</p>
<p>I want to take Sat ii for november. Will i be able to send the scores if i am applying ed?</p>
<p>On the Macaulay [url=<a href=“http://macaulay.cuny.edu/prospective-students/applying.php]website[/url”>http://macaulay.cuny.edu/prospective-students/applying.php]website[/url</a>] under ‘Your Dual Application’ it says you may select 6 partner campus choices. Does this mean you are actually applying to 6 different schools in order of preference (i.e. put Hunter as your 1st choice and Queens as 2nd, don’t get accepted to Hunter but you do get accepted to Queens)? Or does this have something to do with where you want to take your classes, etc?</p>
<p>Just got through reading the entire thread and now my nerves are on high! Anyone out there applied to MHC this year?</p>
<p>@DMA017: ME! IM SO NERVOUS. I’m applying to Hunter and ugh I’m scared.</p>
<p>YES!! finally someone else on CC who’s applying to Macaulay. I was beginning to think I was the only one, phew. I also applied to Macaulay at Hunter and I’m freaking out. I try not to think about it but my brain involuntarily counts down everyday, oh by the way 10 more days hahaha</p>
<p>I KNOW! I haven’t seen anyone else on here applying to Macaulay. I hope that’s a good thing. And 9 more now! My nerves are ridiculous.</p>
<p>Hey have you gotten any email from Macaulay at Hunter?</p>
<p>On Monday, they sent me an email about studying abroad</p>
<p>Oh phew, I was worried because I hadn’t received anything from them except for that email and one sometime last week, so I was worried.</p>
<p>On a side note, my innate tendency to over-analyze, makes me believe that I made it in cuz of the email, lol! but only time will tell</p>
