<p>Do yourself a favor and don’t have your heart completely on Yale. Look into other schools that offer a great program for your major. Once upon a time, I was set on on Stanford and MIT. Then I discovered UIUC and UMich, two schools that offered just as good of an engineering program and they are easier to get in. Now I don’t even plan on applying to MIT and Stanford. Our dream schools can change and sometimes it’s for the best. :)</p>
