CC Poll: How Many Colleges Did You Apply To?

<p>8, any more and the essays pile up...</p>

<p>im applying to 12, 7 public and 5 private.</p>

<p>I haven't got the final list yet - I know that sounds ridiculous, but its still fluid - in fact I dropped Case off my list yesterday. </p>

<p>With that in mind...I have applied to 6 already (and been accepted at 2), finishing up 4 today or tomorrow - and then have another 17 on my regular admit list, which I will probably cut down a bit.</p>

<p>Bottom line: I will probably end up applying to about 20 schools.</p>

<p>Was around 12, then got into Umich, so it's at 7 or less right now.</p>

<p>-Indiana (accepted)
-UMich Ann Arbor (accepted)
-Wisconsin Madison (waiting)
-Vanderbilt
-Penn Wharton ED
-Princeton
-Stanford</p>

<p>6
UC Berkeley
UCLA
UC Davis
UC Irvine
UC Riverside
USC</p>

<p>I applied to alot, but I think if I had it to do over I would had removed 2 or 3 that I know I have no intention of going to. I wasted that $100</p>

<p>haha, cheater. thats only 2 apps.</p>

<p>i'm applying to 5. and they're all schools i have an interest in. three reaches (mit. stanford. ucb) one match (rice) and safety (ut austin)</p>

<p>i can't even imagine applying to 12 schools... omg. how would you ever decide which one to go to?</p>

<p>does applying to more schools, decrease your odds of being accepted. I heard that all colleges share information on who applies to their schools, and applying to too many makes you seem indecisive or under confident.</p>

<ol>
<li>
done, just waiting</li>
</ol>

<p>The other day I sent off my fourth app...
7 total:
1 reach
2 semi-reaches
1 high match
2 matches
1 SUPER safety (good in-state univ)</p>

<p>3 more to go...should be finished by the middle of this month for that good old RD</p>

<p>Why doesn't someone start a new poll for the CURRENT crop of applicants?</p>

<p>i only applied to one school</p>

<p>i know people that have applied to 19 schools. WHY? I feel that's pretty unnecessary. It just makes your end decision even harder because you may have so many schools to choose from. That's crazy!</p>

<p>i applied to one ED
had i not been accepted, i would've applied to 11 more</p>

<p>yeah im sure. your name suits you well ;)</p>

<p>One Ivy - One acceptance</p>

<p>6 - 3 semi reaches, 1 match, 2 safeties
had i not gotten into my ED school, would have applied to at least 3 more</p>

<ol>
<li>two national, 8 LACs</li>
</ol>

<p>8 early schools: 1- reach 3- match 3- pretty likely 1- super safety</p>

<p>my two regular decisions which i'm going to send if i dont get into my ED (i'll know monday) are both semi-reaches</p>
