The State University of New York compiles an information manual about freshman admission to the baccalaureate programs throughout the state. A profile summary for the four-year colleges and university centers is charted. An outline of costs and financial assistance available is provided to help the prospective student understand and prepare for the expenses of attending a State University campus or community college. A narrative statement on each of the University Centers, Medical Centers, Colleges of Arts and Science, Specialized Colleges, and statutory colleges provides information on the campus, enrollment, housing, campus activities, admissions criteria for freshmen and transfers, and available academic programs. In addition, the manual contains a curriculum chart listing the curricula and fields of specialization and the participating campuses where each is offered. The manual contains profiles based on data collected on students who applied and were admitted for the fall term of 1975; the supplement is based on data for the fall term of 1976. (JMF)
