CC Poll: How Many Colleges Did You Apply To?

<p>interesting. fee waiver. common app. one click applying.</p>

<p>Like credit cards and easy loans, colleges try to make it easier to apply. One would predict a plethora of apps per applicant.</p>

<p>coleges probably hire, from the hefty tuitions, marketing firms whose major mission is to increase customers, I mean apps.</p>

<p>Like...10..ish. After getting rejected from my dream school (it was an impossible school, haha), I freaked out and ended up applying to several 'safety' schools. In the end, I was accepted into all of my safety schools, and 2/2 of the kinda/maybe get accepted schools.</p>

<p>11 in total! I had a list of about thirteen but was too stressed/tired to apply to the last two.</p>

<p>I applied to 9. I originally only applied to 4. But then I got an app waiver to a school I was moderately interested in so I applied there. Then my parents told me they wanted me to apply to the local CC, just in case. I play lacrosse, and was being recruited by a number of schools for a while, but finally applied to three schools for lacrosse, making it 9.</p>

<p>Why were these polls discontinued? It’s fun to watch the trends… :P</p>

<p>16 tenchar…</p>

<p>9 total. 2 reach, 5 match, 2 safety.</p>

<p>9 total. No safeties. No matches? 3-4 super reaches.</p>

<p>9: 1 safety, 4 matches, 4 reaches. Got into all my reaches, half my matches, and my safety.</p>
