<p>please give me some suggestions and recommendations. I really want to go to Wellesley college. </p>
<p>Since you are not considering financial aid, that is a very good news. In fact, to some of your top institutions, I would send an email expressing this - that you are very interested to attend them but are not relying on financial aid. Note that financial aid is separate from merit scholarships, so if you are eligible for that, you should get it without affecting your admission chances.</p>
<p>It is good that you are applying broadly, so I’m sure you will get in somewhere. Which are your top choices (3-5 schools)? It’s difficult to respond with that long list.</p>
<p>thank you! hannahvanana94!! I am really into Barnard so i need to give a shot in any way. Wellesley…I got reject from Wellesley in Early Decision 1!!!</p>
<p>thanks for the chance
Like, I said, I always chance back.

Sorry I don’t know too much about the last few colleges.</p>
<p>With your great academics, you will probably get into most of them. Cornell and Brown are probably mid-reaches and Vandy may be a low reach/high match. Good luck!</p>

<p>You could try some schools which need a diverse student body… probably somewhere in the South or Midwest.</p>
