<p>Are any other SCEA acceptees planning on doing any other apps? I'm still planning on submitting Penn, Duke, Columbia and Yale b/c my mom is very nervous about me going West. Of course, none of these schools even compare to Stanford :p...but I felt like I owed it to my parents. Also, I'm finding it very hard to find the drive to finish these apps (I had already completed most of them prior to Stanford's decision...I only have quite a bit left for Yale and Penn's autobiography essay). Anyone else in a similar situation?</p>
<p>I personally am not a SCEA acceptee, but my friend is and she's still applying to Harvard, Yale and Princeton. That's so she can compare financial aid packages. She's hoping the other schools will give better aid, but of course, Stanford is her first choice.</p>
<p>I actually submitted apps to HYP before I heard about Stanford. Stanford ia sefinitely my top choice though!</p>
<p>I already paid the application fees, so I figure at this point I might as well finish them, with the exception of one or two. Writing essays can be fun, anyway.</p>
<p>Now whether I will put EFFORT into the other applications... well that's a different story :).</p>
<p>My other apps are to Caltech, MIT, Harvard, Harvey Mudd, and U. Chicago (I never applied to safeties because I was waiting to hear from Stanford first). Of those, I think Caltech is the only one I would consider choosing over Stanford, but this could change between now and April.</p>
<p>Swarthmore and Yale</p>
<p>Stanford ( :) ) and Yale, Harvard, Northwestern.</p>
<p>Brown, Northwestern, Columbia, and Harvard. But I don't think I would pick any over Stanford unless they gave me a really good reason :)</p>
<p>Harvard, Princeton, Yale, MIT, Duke, Caltech.</p>
<p>I feel stupid sending in SIX more apps (Don't really care for any of them except for the first two on the list)...but I mean, my parents already paid for the app fees, and it would just seem like a waste of money to withdraw...<em>sigh</em></p>
<p>harvard,brown,cornell,princeton
because my mother said so</p>
<p>harvard, cornell, brown, dartmouth, emory, and....wait..would you recommend me going to emory even tho im accepted or is that a bad idea? ( i wanna major in premed-bio)</p>

<p>Wow. Poor girl. What a tough life she must live, if she's deciding between H, Y, P, and S...</p>
<p>harvard yale and princeton</p>
<p>I guess I'm in the same boat as others. I already paid the app fee (long time ago) and because my parents want me to. I'm pretty sure I would chose Stanford over any other school. (Applied as of last night: Yale, Harvard, Columbia. I also applied to a safety back in October and Berkeley in November.) </p>
<p>Here's a question though: If you were faced with the decision between HYPM or Stanford, which would you choose and WHY? (I guess the why is the important part, considering this is a Stanford board.) My brother was accepted to Yale and Stanford and chose Stanford; his main reason: he likes to fish. What about you?</p>
<p>harvard princeton yale MIT and pomona (yes, pomona!)</p>
<p>I applied to the UCs in November cuz that was the deadline...</p>
<p>I can't wait to see all the choices we have. Stanford is still a high top choice for me. They have the best collegiate taiko (japanese drumming) group in north america, probably the world (they actually taught me taiko, which I've been doing for 6-7 years now).</p>
<p>harvard yale upenn and rice</p>
<p>i'm from TX and i think it's super cold outside these days. i'm not sure how i'd survive in the Northeast if i ended up there though.</p>
<p>Before I got my stanford decision I had applied to Berkeley and UT Austin. I was planning to send apps to Northwestern, Johns Hopkins, Princeton, MIT, and Rice. However, now i'm only going to do MIT, Princeton, and JHU. But the only one i will even consider picking over Stanford is MIT (Unless Stanford offers a significantly lower financial aide).</p>
<p>Yeah. For me, from now on, it's all about financial aid.</p>
<p>haha, being a procrastinator has finally paid off! I had already applied to the UC as financial back-ups and was planning on still applying to Princeton and MIT, but since I hadn't even started the process yet, I am official done with college applications and selections before the new year.</p>

<h2>C'mon college_hopeful, that's sort of unfair. For all we know, her family (like most in this country) might be unable to pay most of the $40,000+ colleges cost today and she's applying to all these schools because she wants the best education at a cost her family can pay.</h2>
<p>tangent aside, to respond to the theme of the thread, i'm still applying to yale. but really with a 9% accept rate last year, and only more apps flooding in this year, i'm really waiting for a rejection. so it's actually as if i'm not applying elsewhere, stanford '09!</p>
<p>I'm pretty happy that I hadn't paid the application fee for any of my other schools yet so I decided to drop a couple I was planning to apply to.</p>
