<p>Hi guys so I applied ED to Dartmouth and was deferred. I honestly was shocked and so extremely heartbroken, everybody told me I would get in. But this is not a post about that. I'm done wallowing and I am trying to figure out my chances for my other schools, since I would honestly be happy to go to any of these. I applied EA to Notre Dame and got in and they will pay for me to go visit (I'm just telling you this so that you know how to more accurately "chance" me). I'm not looking for the old "well you are looking at Ivy League admissions so you never really know" speech, I already know that. Please be honest with me, thats all I ask, and I would be very, very grateful to anybody who answers.</p>
