Hi! It's great that you're interested in studying psychology at a SUNY college. Each SUNY campus may have slightly different strengths and resources, but here are a few noteworthy options for psychology majors:

1. SUNY Binghamton University - Binghamton has a strong psychology program that offers both a Bachelor of Arts (BA) and a Bachelor of Science (BS) in psychology. The BA is geared more towards the liberal arts, while the BS offers a more research-intensive experience.

2. SUNY Stony Brook University - Stony Brook's psychology department offers a BA in psychology and a more specialized BS in integrative neuroscience. They have a reputation for having excellent research opportunities, and students often work alongside faculty on various projects.

3. SUNY University at Buffalo - Their psychology department offers a BA in psychology and a BA in cognitive science. Both programs provide students with a strong foundation in psychological science and research methods. The department emphasizes interdisciplinary research, with faculty members specializing in areas such as behavioral neuroscience, cognition, social/personality psychology, and clinical psychology.

4. SUNY Geneseo - Geneseo offers a BA in psychology with a strong liberal arts foundation. Students have the opportunity to participate in research projects on-campus or to complete internships in nearby organizations. Geneseo is known for its small class sizes and close-knit community, which can be attractive to many students.

5. SUNY Albany - The University at Albany offers a BA in psychology with various research opportunities and internships available for students. The psychology department at Albany also hosts a regular speaker series where researchers from around the country are invited to present their work.

These are just a few of the many SUNY colleges with psychology programs. I'd recommend taking a look at the websites of these colleges to learn more about each program's specific focus, research opportunities, available resources, and campus life. Open houses and campus tours can also provide valuable insight into which campus is the best fit for you. Good luck with your college search!
