applying to schools you think you wouldn't get into...

Applying to College
21

<p>Just to let you know. Even if you don't expect to get it, EVERY REJECTION LETTER STINGS. Remember that.</p>

<p>hey I'm using University of Washington as my safety too.</p>

23

<p>i applied to 8 reaches, 3 matches, and 2 safeties. if i could do it over again, id apply to more reaches. You will get into one of your reaches if you apply to enough of them</p>

24

<p>that's false logic - it works in certain scenarios, but not admissions. If an applicant applies to more reaches, the chances of admission operate independently. Point being, if you apply to 12 reaches you'll get into at least 1? </p>

<p>False.</p>

25

<p>i know that, i took AP Stats, i was just saying its not bad to apply to more reaches</p>

26

<p>Hmmm, yeah I did eight reaches myself with the same thought that more choices equals better chances, though at least it's over now so you really can't blast my logic so my ego is still intact :D</p>
