Why this forum is dead af
Hey
Is it a good idea to apply to universities that haven’t accepted many Nepali students? Like 1/2 students in total.
Now, sometimes it is totally a poor idea if you are thinking of applying to colleges like JHU which doesmt accept much Nepalese
But last year Tufts, Yale, Columbia,Amherst,.Princeton had 0 Nepali admits but that doesn’t mean they wont take anymore. These things makes the probability even more higher.So, make sure the college provides aid, and has accepted a Nepali student till now. You are good to apply if you think you have chances.

Its same with me. No any significant ecas.
Tufts accepted Gaurika Singh (Nepali citizenship), but idk if that counts tho.
The application process has been overly competitive. There are guys with 1500+SAT, all A*, research papers,founder of 2,3 org and what not. So, with that EFC you def have less chance. We still have 3,4 months left, work on your ECs prolly
CO25, well let’s not count that though. She is completely considered from UK application pool.

If you are planning to apply to ED. It’s better to talk with applicants and try to not clash ED.
One of my friends is applying to Vassar College. He has nearly 25K EFC and has researched with John Mather, a Nobel Laureate from Columbia University. Just imagining the profile of applicants these days gives a severe case of imposter syndrome.
why is this dead chat
has anyone been accepted to Whitman college in the past 3 to 4 years? (with near to full aid)
Whenever I see a post like this I get very intimidated. And this definitely toughens the competition but then just because you have an amazing profile does not mean you will get accepted. I am not bad-mouthing anybody but the US admissions process is holistic meaning AO’s look for students that fit. I myself am planning to apply to Vassar and definitely feel like an imposter amongst these amazing profiles but then
