Just plugged your stats into the Plattsburgh scholarship calculator and you would be eligible for a $4000 scholarship. To answer some other questions, yes, there is an airport in Plattsburgh and there is a lot going on in town. It is a very safe campus and you can walk to Lake Champlain, also, ski and hike in the Adirondacks. Besides Montreal you can take the ferry to Burlington, VT, a fun college town. You are about 1/2 hour form Lake Placid the site of the 1980 Olympics, etc.

You would have internship opportunities right at the hospital in town. We know of 2 girls attending Plattsburgh who are interning there now.

It is probably easier to get to Plattsburgh from NJ than Rochester/Brockport. Plattsburgh is just a straight shot up Interstate 90 and I87 in NY. Also, if you mapquest from Rutgers, NJ to Plattsburgh, Ny it is about 5 hrs.15 min but to Brockport it is 6hrs. 1 minutes. (I used Rutgers as a generic point in NJ).

As far as diversity, there are a lot of kids attending form the NY metro area and all SUNY campuses are actively inclusive.
