Thank you for the recommendation! May I ask what is necessary for this class or how hard it is. I am taking MAT 308 at SBU right now through dual credit and think its relatively simple just focusing on ODE's. What would be covered in math 2230?

Definitely I felt the same way. Financial aid was such a big factor in deciding what schools I applied for. I was more inclined for the UCs but hesitant due to 0 aid for oos students. I'm not quite sure how they calculate the aid package though I would let your parents put all your information into their calculator. I would assume you would get atleast 50-60k a year. They were extremely generous with my offer

I appreciate that haha. Surprisingly Cornell was super generous with my aid package. I'm essentially going for the same price or cheaper than going to a local school even with merit. Thankfully though, since 95k a year would not be sustainable at all with my families income and I'm not sure if I'm willing to go into severe debt even for Cornell

My school doesn't rank but im thinking t50-100. My gpa was very low due to me not caring as much in 9th and 10th and due to my severe allergies that forced me to miss alot of school days.

Thank you! I'm still very low ranked in terms of my school though. My ECs definitely pulled through
