<p>I finally sent my app in yesterday, but it took a few hours for all my confirmation emails to come in so it shouldn’t be too bad stupefy.</p>
<p>But I felt that finally submitting all my apps was a bit anticlimatic…but that could of been because I was editting my PLME essays like crazy. I wonder how many kids applied for that this year (~2000?).</p>
<p>Yay, a thread where I belong! Putting finishing touches on my app today. I’ve got a low Subj test score in my intended major so I may retake it and my class rank isn’t very impressive, but otherwise I’m feel fairly confident about my application.</p>
<p>I finally submitted my app very very early this morning. But don’t worry guys, my GPA is not competitive, nor are my subject tests, although I did write a KILLER “what don’t you know” essay. </p>
<p>Are you guys sure the acceptance rate is only 9% this year? I find that hard to believe, because last year it was like 14%. Even if it drops, it shouldn’t drop THAT much.</p>
<p>None specific to Brown if that’s what you’re asking. I did the MVS one a while ago, and I’m applying for a ton of local and my high school only scholarships. Burger King and KFC actually have national scholarships that I think I’m going to apply for also. I need all the help I can get, haha.</p>
<p>It’s the Most Valuable Student Scholarship by the Elks Club, but the deadline passed a while ago.
I’m basically in the same situation as you. And unfortunately, I’ve heard Brown’s endowment and therefore financial aid doesn’t really compare to a lot of the other Ivies. I used fastweb.com to find a ton of random scholarships though, and I think I’m going to apply for a lot of them.</p>
<p>a lot of the bigger scholarships consider financial need (like the burger king and kfc ones you mentioned) so I wont be eligible for those either. ■■■</p>
<p>Brown application submitted about 15 minutes ago. 'Ello all. A bit new (but not really). Brown is most definitely my first choice. What other schools are you others applying to? April 1st is a very, very long time away. <em>sigh</em> At least I’ll be busy.</p>
