Applying To Colleges

[tmthforu94]

I got in to Michigan!

Sweet!!! I am so happy for you

[California8429]

My sister is in her last year at Cornell and has always hated it. It is a pretty solemn place with nothing up there, cold, and dark in winter.

And easiest to get in hardest to get out is pretty true, but probably because the focus isn't on liberal arts there as the other undergraduate ivy leagues are.

[Lief 🗽]

Cornell is one of my top choices for law school, so hopefully Ithaca is less terrible than it's being made out to be here... I kind of like cold, gloomy weather though, so maybe it won't be so bad.

Or maybe I'll get into Columbia and get to live in NYC instead.

I got in to Michigan!

Told you! (I may apply there next year as well, my grandpa went there)

Now onwards to... what else? UVA, Northwestern, and the Ivies?

I have came up, as well, with a final list:

USC (close to a safety)
UC Berkeley
Georgetown
Michigan

UChicago
UPenn

Now onwards to... what else? UVA, Northwestern, and the Ivies?

I will hear from UVA on January 31.  If I get to be a Semi-Finalist for the Emory Scholars Program, I'll hear then as well.  Otherwise, it's nothing until April 1.

George Washington
Case Western
Tulane
American
UBC
McGill (maybe)

a strange list

No, it just happens to be a very odd choice. I acknowledge that it has stellar academics but it can be a bit off the wall, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Although if you go there be prepared to interact with a large number of trust fund kids who talk about all sorts of progressive ideas but don't really live any of it (daddy pays for their antics and yet they hate the richies).

What's going on with this quote pyramid? Fix your tags, because it's illegible.

[Kaine for Senate '18]

Yale is submitted.

[tmthforu94]

Right now, I'm about 80% decided. I plan on attending the University of Kansas with a major in political science. Following that, I hope to be accepted into their law program. Who knows.

[Kaine for Senate '18]

And everything is submitted.  Thank God that's over.

[Simfan34]

Yale is submitted.

Hail!

[ilikeverin]

Congrats, Ben!  Feels good, doesn't it?

Yep.  Now the four week wait until I hear back from UVA, and then nothing until April

Due to what they require, or out of personal desire to make it exceptional?

I remember you stated that your number one choice was Harvard. Is that still your number one choice?

Both, and yes, Harvard is still #1

Best of luck to you, then.

I'm sure everyone on this forum in the grade above me who has applied will be really nervous for quite a while.

[I'm JewCon in name only.]

I applied to six colleges.

Got accepted into West Virginia University, and the University of Alabama. Along with 2 deferments and a rejection.

Where are you attending?

Most likely WVU as it's cheaper.

My junior year was miserable. Marred by bad grades, and depression. Killed my chances of getting into top tier schools like UNC-Chapel Hill or Michigan.


But oh well, life goes on. Gotta work with what I got

Good for you! Alabama is a great school - I have a friend who's going there.

Have you looked at anywhere in-state?
