<p>Why not apply for UNC?</p>

<p>My sister went to UNC and I want to go somewhere different. What schools do you guys think I will get accepted/denied/waitlisted at? And does reach mean I will most likely not get in?</p>

<p>Duke is clearly my number one choice. Do you think I need to apply early decision in order to get in? is it worth it to bind for the admission boost?</p>

<p>Go ahead and ED at Duke Pratt if you feel like it.</p>

<p>Ever since I submitted my first app, I started to get this feeling that I’m not going to get in anywhere. I don’t really know why, I guess Im just nervous about the decisions. I still got 3 more apps to go and all I can think about is getting denied. It seems that the more I read about people getting denied from schools with perfect scores etc. that I feel even more hopeless. Can someone boost my confidence a little bit about getting in somewhere?</p>
