FIT may be technically a SUNY but an anomaly. As one of the best schools of its type in the world, it is truly elite

I’m in California. My theory is that there are too many SUNY schools. From here, i have a hard time distinguishing them and I feel like I’m pretty up on college degrees. They don’t differentiate the way that the UCs and CSUs do. It isn’t that they are unappealing as such. It’s that there are 64 of them. That’s a lot of schools to sort out.
They do differentiate. System set up originally with specialties. Some of that still remains. Purchase & New Paltz artsy. Cortlandt sporty. Buffalo, Stony Brook, Binghamton and Albany the anchor universities.
PP who claimed mediocre? Incorrect. Some of our finest medical doctors obtained their undergrads at Binghamton. At that price tag, money well saved for years of grad school

I went to NYU and met lots of SUNY and CUNY grads by just living in the city. I can't tell any of the schools apart aside from FIT, Baruch (1st gen grinders who want to work in finance), and Stony Brook (pre-med favorite). The rest of the schools upstate need to be consolidated.
My guess is that NY is doing this in an effort to fill empty seats in those upstate schools. NY kids who grow up within 30 miles of the city don't want to go further upstate or to Western NY for college.

Not on the list.
That stock photo they used on that page for the mental health square is bugging me for some reason. That’s a kinda scary-looking person.

Here's an example if you're from California and you want to go to SUNY Purchase. The NY schools will price match based on tuition + fees for UC Berkeley
SUNY Purchase in-state tuition and fees: $8953 per year
Current out-of-state price for SUNY Purchase: $18,863 per year
UC Berkeley in-state tuition & fees price match: $19,189 per year
This is just a gimmick. It only works to your benefit if your in-state tuition + fees is markedly lower than NY's current OOS rates. Also, not included in this program are some of NY's best gems: FIT, the CUNY schools (Hunter, John Jay, or Baruch), or SUNY Stony Brook.
Agree. Many on the state list have notoriously high costs for in state tuition, like UIUC.
Also agree on the campuses.... If Binghamton, Stony Brook, and FIT were included.... that would be something.

Why would a California even bother to apply to inferior SUNY schools when they have a plethora of better ones instate?
