<p>I'm only interested in the following schools:</p>
<p>Brown
Columbia
Dartmouth
Harvard
Penn
Princeton
Yale
Duke
University of California--Berkeley</p>
<p>Which schools require me to choose a specific program/major before I apply for the general school, and which schools make you choose after you've been accepted?</p>
<p>Lemme see what we have here…</p>
<p>1) you list nine schools among the lowest acceptance rates extant, saying only these “interest” you</p>
<p>but 2) you don’t possess the wherewithal to know basic dimensions of the colleges themselves to even discover how they admit students – or spend time on their websites to discover this rather basic feature</p>
<p>3) This seems to be a huge inconsistency – would you agree?</p>
<p>Agree that you can easily find all the necessary information on the college websites. And since these are the only schools that interest you, it won’t take long to get the answers to your question.</p>
<p>Also, no need to add the ‘Ivy League’ part, extremely overused and superfluous; not to mention that some of the schools you listed aren’t in that athletic conference.</p>
<p>Yes. Why, exactly, do only those 9 schools interest you? Are you under the impression that those are the top 9 schools in the country and there is some significant gap between them and the ones below?</p>
<p>Don’t tell me, let me guess. You’re from another country?</p>
<p>You forgot Cornell. It is in the Ivy League conference you know.</p>
<p>Everyone needs to relax…OP most likely meant that only those schools are the ones he/she was interested in finding out how you would apply (program or general). I am quite interested in knowing this so lets stop pointing out why his post is not suffice or w.e. you wanna say and just answer his question (are there any cc’ers who arent so arrogant and useless?)</p>
<p>^ And yet you’re asking arrogant useless CCers to help you… Hmmm</p>
<p>Here’s the thing. Colleges and universities determine their own policies for this kind of thing. Moreover, this information is readily available on the web site of every university or college that interests troy, and on the web site of every university or college that interests you, bmonticello.</p>
<p>If you can’t take the trouble to visit the web sites of colleges that interest you and find out their policies and procedures, you must not be all that interested.</p>
<p>(Also, what Erin’s Dad said.)</p>
<p>Duke is in the ACC, and Berkeley is in the Pac-12.</p>
<p>@sikorsky u realize most all of the admissions posta here on cc can be found on college websites…if everyone did that cc would b pointless for college admissions.</p>
<p>Huh?</p>
<p>That doesn’t even make sense.</p>
<p>I realize no such thing, bmonticello.</p>
<p>I think a large share of the discussion here is about analyzing and synthesizing (and making up wild tales about) the information on colleges’ web sites. Which is different from just asking me what those web sites say, as if I were your own personal Google.</p>
<p>ur right cuz if u were a personal google we wud have been done in 1 comment and you would be 10x more useful. And all the analyzing can be found on google as well, which makes this no different. and he is taking the info…the fact that he knows these schools have programs, and is asking if when u apply u need to apply to those programs. no where on the websites does it say that explicitally without detailed digging and actually applying. so hes asking for knowledgable ppl that dnt find it too difficult (like urslef) to just be a goog google and say the answer…if u dnt want to do that why even bother commenting sikorsky?</p>
<p>Actually, it’s much more useful to point out a resource (the college website) than to run around and simply do it for someone, leaving them without the tools to do it in the future on their own. Sorry, but anyone applying to the schools listed should have the ability to do this level of research on their own.</p>
<p>And no, it doesn’t take a lot of ‘digging’ to find out what the OP asked, it’s very straightforward on their Admissions websites.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Take a little time to look at the posting history of Sikorsky (not to mention T26E4, ucbalumnus, and others who you have called “arrogant and useless”), you are talking to one of the most knowledgeable AND helpful members on this forum.</p>
<p>then why has no one presented the link entomom (including urself if a resource is so valuable), and I dont care how knowledgable and helpful u think he is. Im stating my opinion based off how unhelpful he is being in this thread…idc what he’s done.</p>
<p>the point of the forum is to help ppl get information…not to say…“oh im not here to be a google…get the link urself”…</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I rest my case ;).</p>
<p>okay…?</p>
<p>@entomom, sikorsky, ucbalumnus: how do you know when someone is just a clueless kid who hasn’t mastered internet etiquette and when someone is a ■■■■■ taking over a thread?</p>
<p>@Troy:
type the name of the school + undergraduate admission requirements
and you’ll have your answer for each school.
What other schools are you applying to?
You would need 3 matches and 2 safeties in addition to that list.</p>
<p>@nmonticello: CC is not here to replace students’ work, but to offer information that is NOT available on the colleges’ website.</p>
<p>who’s replacing students work? And that’s not completely true, this thread as an example</p>
