<p>Obviously your list of colleges is superb, but I don’t know why you don’t have more really selective schools. Of course you should go to the school you like, but I think you have a good shot at any school in America (of course, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t keep the safeties you have. Everyone needs those).</p>

<p>^Knows nothing about college admissions. The OP is already applying to some of the most selective undergraduate business schools in the country.</p>

<p>@Cranberry, I considered applying to HYPS, but none of them have an undergrad business program, so I’ll save them (or Northwestern or Columbia) for grad, when the time comes. </p>

<p>@Billabong, (or anybody really), how competitive am I for some of the programs? I don’t know much about the selectivity of the specific business programs at the schools, other than that Wharton is insane to get into. Which ones would be matches?</p>

<p>anyone have any insights to this?</p>
