I went to a medium sized prep school for most of my high school years, and I was very excited when I was accepted into the school that claims to be New York's "public ivy". However my jubilation did not last long. Upon arriving to the school, I immediately found myself friendless, not because I am the loner type (I consider myself very friendly), but because everyone else had friends from their high school there. They didn't seem to want to make any more friends. Then the classes were very easy. Even though Geneseo touts itself as having a very difficult Bio program, I glided through all my classes with ease, not really having to put forth any effort. I am not, by any means, a genius, but I did take a few APs in my high school, and they were far harder than any of the courses I took (even in the Honors program). The weather is also atrocious. The first few weeks of school were absolutely ideal, but in October, I had to break out my winter jacket. I'm originally from upstate NY, but the weather is UNBEARABLE. DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU LIKE TEMPERATURES ABOVE 10 DEGREES! For the most part, the people aren't super friendly. A lot of the girls are very fake and insincere. And the guys act like bigshots. However, I did manage to find a few really good people at the end of my first semester, but they were just as miserable as me. Finally, the social life revolves around drinking and partying. I do like my fair share of parties, but partying every weekend gets boring very quickly. The LateKnight program is actually very good though! They bring in lots of comedians and other fun acts. However, not many people attended these events while I was there, because they were all too busy drinking. Overall, SUNY Geneseo may be the place for you, but it wasn't for me. I don't like fake people, easy classes, or ice cold falls, winters, and springs. I transferred to American University my sophomore year, and I LOVE IT! Good luck with everything!
