<p>one of these two ed:
upenn
cornell</p>
<p>johns hopkins
uva
wisconsin
boston college
penn state
suny bing</p>
<p>visited cornell and bc already
planning penn, penn state this month, virginia and johns hopkins over the summer</p>
<p>I’m pretty sure I’m going to apply ED as well, but to Dartmouth. It’s a reach for me, but I love that school. I’m thinking ED will give me more of a chance than RD will.</p>
<p>I would apply ED to MIT if they had it. </p>
<p>Also, ED does give you a slight boost</p>
<p>depends on the school.</p>
<p>For MIT, applying EA gives an insignificant boost.</p>
<p>Not for this year’s applicants. They used to only accept ~30% of the class through EA. </p>
<p>Now they changed their policy to 50 EA and 50 RD. it’s in their blog.</p>
<p>Looking to aim high, but really nervous about the intensity of some of these apps. I’m scared about taking on too many! :(</p>
<p>First choice: Stanford REA</p>
<p>Second choices: Dartmouth, USC, UCLA, Tulane, Northwestern</p>
<p>Safety: Some state college</p>
<p>This is my list as of now…but aside from my top seed it pretty much changes weekly. :)</p>
<p>So many people applying to USC next year!
Class of 2011 screwed us over though, since they were the largest class thus far. Sigh.</p>
<p>Sometimes I hope that our class has a really high number of unqualified applicants… Just so we can all get in lol</p>
<p>Ahahaha it’s probably wrong of us to think that, but… I hope so too ■■■■■.</p>
<p>Well, I hope they are qualified but all apply to their state schools :)</p>
<p>Changed my list. Too many people go to VT from my school… so</p>
<p>MIT, CMU, Harvard, Yale, UVa, George Mason, UPenn, Stanford, Princeton.</p>
<p>I have just done HYPSM.</p>
<p>Lol.</p>
<p>So is George Mason your safety?</p>
<p>I need a financial safety… I’m ****ed lol.</p>
<p>My financial safeties = academic reaches.</p>
<p>Nevermind… Chapman is my financial safety, lol. :D</p>
<p>George Mason is such a safety lol.</p>
<p>and a financial safety…</p>
<p>Technically… UVa is a safety as well.</p>
<p>Reaches: UCSB, UCSC, U of Washington</p>
<p>Matches: U of Oregon, U of Colorado Boulder, SDSU, Oregon State, Washington State</p>
<p>Safeties: U of Arizona, SFSU, Humboldt State, Sonoma State, UC Merced/Riverside</p>
<p>@collegechica: I’m applying to Dartmouth too! It’s a reach for me, but it’s still my first choice! :)</p>
<p>I really need a financial safety! Probably UCSB…it was supposed to be UCSD, but after looking at some of those decision threads, I don’t really know anymore :/</p>
