<p>I’ll probably end up going to Rutgers even if I get into an Ivy-League. Oh well saves money for Med. School.
-Harvard
-Princeton
-Cornell
-Rutgers
-TCNJ (7-year Med. Program)
-Stanford
-Dartmouth
-UPenn
-NJIT</p>
<p>Alright, so Pomona’s back ahaha. But I’m taking San Diego State off. Now my list looks like…</p>
<p>USC (#1)
Vanderbilt
Loyola Marymount EA
Chapman EA
Santa Clara EA
Pomona
Wash U
CSU Long Beach</p>
<p>Gah. I keep going through phases and changing my mind. Right now my list looks like this.</p>
<p>EA:
Chicago
MIT
CalTech
Illinois
Michigan</p>
<p>Regular:
Northwestern
Cornell
Some other places if I don’t get in anywhere early</p>
<p>ED: Wharton
SCEA: Yale?</p>
<p>RD: Princeton, MIT, Stanford, Chicago, Cornell, UC Berkeley, UCLA, Johns Hopkins</p>
<p>I’m kind of new to this website but from the posts and threads I’ve seen, it seems like most of the people on this website do really well in school (or everyone’s lying about getting amazing SAT scores hahah) and live in the eastern part of the United States (I keep hearing about schools on the east coast)</p>
<p>Anyway, I’m from Seattle, WA and my list of schools in no particular order:</p>
<ul>
<li>UW Seattle</li>
<li>Wellesley (applying early decision; #1 choice)</li>
<li>Smith</li>
<li>Claremont McKenna</li>
<li>Washington University (St. Louis)</li>
<li>Princeton</li>
<li>Barnard</li>
</ul>
<p>I haven’t come up with a complete list yet. I’m still trying to figure out schools I could apply/go to if I don’t get into Wellesley. In regards to cost, I think if I don’t get into Wellesley for some reason I’ll end up going to UW (instate tuition!)</p>
<p>^me too. I’m planning to stay in-state because of the In-state Tuition.
I’m getting the hell out for Grad school though.</p>
<p>Taking Santa Clara off the list.</p>
<p>EA / Scholarship:
USC (#1)
Loyola Marymount
Chapman</p>
<p>RD:
Pomona
Vanderbilt
Wash U
CSU Long Beach</p>
<p>7 colleges, yay!</p>
<p>As far as I know now, I am applying to way too many schools. I need to bring that number down.</p>
<p>I’m most likely applying Early Decision to Duke.</p>
<p>Mostly final list:</p>
<p>MIT
Brown (not 100%)
Harvey Mudd
Chicago
Rice
Northwestern (not 100%)
Carnegie Mellon
UC Berkeley, LA, SD, Santa Barbara, Davis</p>
<p>The rest:</p>
<p>Princeton
Stanford
WUSTL
Cornell
*Swarthmore, Carleton, Grinnell, Rochester</p>
<p>*The status of these in the eyes of my parents is unknown. I think they might refuse to pay for these when they could pay less for a UC; I would probably back that if I got into Berkeley or maybe LA, but not so much for the others.</p>
<p>(I’m limited to 10 private/OOS schools by my school. Transcript requests and counselor recs prevent me from circumventing this.)</p>
<p>Wooww. You guys are applying to A LOT of schools. I’ve decided to only apply to schools I would SERIOUSLY attend if I got in, so I don’t end up spending a fortune for college apps. My List:
-UC Berkeley(#1)
-Duke(#2)
-USC(#3)
-UCLA(#4)</p>
<p>I honestly can’t see myself in any other school beside these four. For Law School:
-Stanford Law(#1)
-UC Berkeley Law(#2)
-UCLA Law(#3)</p>
<p>^I actually would want to attend almost all of the schools I listed (perhaps a little grudgingly for Santa Barbara or Davis), but admissions at top schools is so unpredictable even with decent stats that I feel the need to apply to a bunch of them so that I can at least have multiple choices.</p>
<p>(You need a safety, by the way. Berkeley and LA don’t count, nor does SD.)</p>
<ol>
<li>UC Berkeley</li>
<li>UC San Diego</li>
<li>Cal Poly Pomona</li>
<li>UC Irvine</li>
</ol>
<p>I’ll be lucky if I get accepted to any of them hahahhaha! If not, i’ll be saying hello to community college for 2 years =)</p>
<p>Georgetown
UPenn
Notredame
UVA
Villanova
Cornell
Uof Michigan
Boston College
Northeastern(maybe)
BU
Babson(maybe)</p>
<p>Applying for business. Would like to pursue a career in international business or finance. I live in Puerto Rico. Do you guys think that being an URM gives me a slight advantage?</p>
<p>In order of preference,</p>
<ol>
<li>Yale</li>
<li>Princeton</li>
<li>USC</li>
<li>Rice</li>
<li>Vanderbilt</li>
<li>UMiami</li>
<li>Denison</li>
<li>LSU</li>
</ol>
<p>Major: English Literature</p>
<p>Career: Probably law, although I’ll always write fiction and, hopefully, someday get a novel published so I can become a full-time writer? :)</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Advantage for what? Admission to those schools? Yes, it will help a lot. As for a career in international business, being a native speaker in Spanish will also help substantially.</p>
<p>@ Stella Don’t “lol” at Fordham! That’s my number 1! Haha. But really, are 90% of the posters on CC top of their class, straight A, all AP’s determined-to-get-into-Ivy League? I mean, I’m applying to FSU, Fordham, UB, UF and maybe Stetson.</p>
<p>@Bornforthestage LOL Your comment made me laugh A LOT!!! It’s true, if you look through forums,most posters are scoring over 2300 on their SATs, take all AP classes and plan on applying Ivy-league.</p>
<p>@Decrescendo: I have an 1870 on the SATS and 4.0 GPA. I’m retaking the SATs in June, but since I know competition is steep I just wondered. As for the career in international business, I’m thinking of taking another language once I’m in college!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Being trilingual is even better.</p>
<p>By the way (not to bring you down or anything), but if you want a fair shot at Georgetown, UPenn, UVA, Cornell, and perhaps even Notre Dame, you’ll want your SAT score to be a 2100 at the minimum, with an ideal score of at least 2200 and 700 or higher on each section. It’s hard to jump from a 1870 to a 2100-2200. Not trying to discourage you, just making you cognizant of the testing range those schools tend to look for.</p>
<p>@rdpgn: You have a pretty good chance at George Washington too 
its my first choice so I can go on and on about it. and yeah a lot of CCers are top of their class. some of them fake it. most of them dont.</p>
