Does anybody have any information about the SUNY Maritime College? I will most probably be on my list as a first choice (I'm going there for a visit soon). If you have information such as what kind of stats to I need to get in (I have a 3.3 GPA and a 1190 SAT), personal experience, etc., please post.

By the way-- last year I've been to this seamanship summer program at the Maine Maritime Academy. Would this help?

Maritime Enthusiast, you may have seen this message before: check w/your guidance counselor for a scholarship to Maritime. My guidance counselor told me that i shoul apply for a scholarship there, because they recently started a program in which they offered scholarships to certain students in certain towns throughout NY. If your school is in the top 10%, you can easily apply (and get the scholarship, I had a friend last year who got into SUNY maritime w/a scholarship.

incognito-- found out today that my GC won't be in school for two weeks. Can I find this info (the list of top 10% schools) anywhere on the net? If I could find it, I'd contact Maritime myself and check about that scholarship.
Thanks for the info.

Maybe you can ask your guidance counselor or call up Maritime and find out

Just got the info about this... seems like I'm way under-qualified. Oh well...
