A bit of a reach but you could get in… It doesn’t matter how other people ‘chance’ you. Enjoy the rest of your senior year and don’t stress too much during the wait…

Yeah I guess it’s a high match/low reach. And you’re definitely right about the stress part. Thanks!

Bump

I’m sort of in a similar spot - need lots of aid, relatively similar stats. From the research I’ve done, you never know who NE will accept. Good luck, hope the best for the both of us.

Wow, cool! Hope to see you in the fall of '18. (unless you’re not planning to attending NE)

If I get in I’m going lol, unless the financial aid offer is whack
