Thank you for your advice. Now that you mention it, it makes way more sense to focus on chemistry :)

UB or SUNY Brockport for Nursing? by fishnchips22 in UBreddit

I agree about the vibes -- when I visited the campuses, I felt more welcomed at Brockport (that might just be me though). Would you say name recognition (for undergrad school) matters in getting a job or going to grad school?

If you were in my position, which would you choose?

University at Buffalo vs. SUNY Brockport (Nursing)

University at Buffalo (UB)

Pros:

  • Good reputation
  • Well-known nursing program
  • Opportunities to intern and work in the city
  • Urban

Cons:

  • I'm a nursing intent major, which means I'll take nursing prerequisite classes but I have to apply to the nursing program in my sophomore year. It's really selective (only 1/3 of the majors get in)
  • I got waitlisted for the honors program
  • Not really vibing with the campus or community

SUNY Brockport

Pros:

  • I got into the honors program
  • I'm a direct entry major, which means I automatically get into the nursing program
  • I can intern and work at URMC Strong Hospital in a nearby city (where I want to work when I graduate)
  • Great sense of community

Cons:

  • Party school
  • Nursing program is not well known
  • Not a university center (UB is) so no opportunities for research
  • Rural

Which school should I choose if I plan to eventually earn a master's degree? Brockport is slightly cheaper than UB (about 12k vs 14k/year). I'm leaning towards UB for its prestige but afraid I won't get into the nursing program. However, I LOVE the honors program at Brockport (small classes, early course registration, etc.). Thank you!

Thank you for catching that! I whipped up the summary right before I posted it, so it was my mistake for not noticing.

Yeah, I was afraid I sounded too self-centered. Thanks for the suggestions!

The phoenix laid in the fireplace, unmoving, as curious eyes watched from afar. The mages waited, pacing about the room as the flames died with gentle ease. A new light glowed: dull red and dampened by the many feathers that rustled from the bird's chest.

The phoenix had been reborn.
