<p>Syracuse = Safety</p>

<p>Notre Dame = Reach</p>

<p>Cornell = Bigger Reach</p>

<p>Princeton = Biggest Reach</p>

<p>Why didn't you apply to more levels? All you have on your list are safeties and reaches...</p>

3

<p>Agree with Heavenwood. You'll almost certainly get into Syracuse, but almost certainly will not get into Notre Dame, Cornell, or Princeton.</p>

4

<p>Not sure about Syracuse, especially given how many applicants have been rejected recently. Take a look at the latest thread regarding applicants who habe been rejected at Syracuse.</p>

5

<p>Did you really get accepted into Penn State?</p>

<p>I thought they were more selective than THAT...</p>

6

<p>For a first poster, I think your comment was quite ridiculous. Of course, the OP has a really good chance at Penn State.</p>

7

<p>Well, the applicant pool must be really crappy this time around...I just got Cornell's decision...ACCEPTED!</p>

8

<p>Syracuse= accepted
Pennstate= accepted
Notre Dame= accepted
Cornell= accepted</p>

9
