I had pretty good SAT scores, in fact sinceDec 04 2005Undecided
I had pretty good SAT scores, in fact since I scored above a 1200 I was admitted to the Honors College, which is a great resource & opportunity. I would recommend that students make sure they have good faculty recommendations, and that if they are uncertain of their SAT scores, they make sure they are involved in a lot of extra curricular activities and write quality essays.
SAT: 1270 Female
I showed up one day, filled out an app,Nov 30 2005Political Science
I showed up one day, filled out an app, and since essay was optional, I didn't have to do one. DON'T COME TO HOFSTRA if you want to actually learn and be surrounded by intelligent students. Do come to Hofstra if you want to party, get drunk all the time, and engage in anything but scholarly work.
SAT: 1150 Female
