<p>okay so I'm just gonna say it..colleges are so unfair.. no one should get special treatment or the opposite because they are a specific race... I think it is so unfair how asians sometimes have to work twice as hard sometimes to get in than other people (and by the way, I'm 100% white).. college admissions should be solely based on qualifications.. colleges think they are being socially just when they do that.. but instead it just makes me think how they can't see past color or ethnicity or whatever.. everyone should have equal opportunities... and they shouldn't reject asians because they found some mediocre person from another race, so they can look good for society.. because they dont.. they just reinforce the concept of discrimination day in, day out</p>

<p>so for your question, I would put whatever makes you comfortable... do the smart thing</p>

<p>all I can say you're a definitely solid applicant.. like it's all so cohesive</p>

<p>B ump</p>

<p>Thanks for all the replies so far. Can someone address my chances for the honors colleges / scholarships at the less-reach schools?</p>

23

<p>I'm not going to stop bumping.</p>

24

<p>B um p</p>

25

<p>being from Alabama will help you; no offense not the smartest state</p>

26

<p>"My dream school is GWU Honors College."</p>

<p>Then why are you thinking about either Columbia or NYU for ED?</p>

27

<p>There are various reason for it, but that's besides the point.</p>

28

<p>Don't check off Caucasian/Unknown. Check off Biracial/Multi-cultural. Or whatever, it says.</p>

<p>lol, I see now that my title could have been misread - I meant as in my college choices ranged from Alabama to NYC, not that I was going from Alabama to NYC. I live in NY (as shown by my name). You could actually very easily look me up in the news if one cared but frankly I don't really care.</p>

<p>AH BIG SAT WRITING ERROR! First thought after reading that, lol.</p>

31

<p>You have a very impressive resume, I wouldn't be shocked if you got into almost all of those schools</p>

32

<p>ha thanks</p>

<p>I'm interested most in the scholarship probability at the safety/match schools - can someone address those too? thanks!</p>

<p>bump</p>

<p>Probably won't need U of Delaware after all you EA safeties. Other than that, you should get into at least one of your RD Ivies if not Columbia. Chance me please!!</p>
