<p>Dude, seriously. Breathe. My advice is to find another college that is much less selective and fall equally in love with it for reasons other than prestige. Then, if you get into Yale, it’ll be icing, but if you don’t, you’ll have this equally awesome (or more awesome) college to attend. Honestly, there are thousands of students exactly like you applying for Yale, so if you don’t make it, it isn’t the end of the world.</p>
