<p>**1) Are you a current high school junior (senior in the fall of 2011) who lives in the metro NYC area? </p>
<p>2) Are you passionate about attending ONE particular college? **</p>
<p>If you can answer YES to BOTH of these questions, MTV may want to include you in a new reality show.</p>

<p>What will they think of next? This sounds AWFUL. Clearly they’re looking to exploit some Susie Smiths with 3.2 GPAs and 1800 SATs dying to go to Harvard, just so they can capture the money-shot of her dismay at the rejection letter. I find the very idea rather repugnant; on the other hand, maybe the show could at least highlight some of the absurdities of the college application process and finally make people chill the freak out.</p>
<p>sounds like MTV is trying to humiliate some kids for entertainment to me. :/</p>
<p>Who cares? Ease up guys its not like these kids are going to be forced to do this.</p>
<p>^still, you gotta feel a bit bad for them…</p>
<p>I wonder if you could opt not to have your portion of the show included if you don’t get in. Because I fit the criteria, but the one school I’m in love with is extremely hard, and being rejected in front of the entire country would be horrible. I sent in my email, but I’d definitely want to hear the details before potentially going any further in the process.</p>
<p>it’s amazing how many ways there are to make money…</p>
<p>I don’t think you’d get much money, if any. At most it would probably be a few hundred dollars I’d imagine.</p>
<p>Ahaha another reality show, that too from MTV.</p>
<p>Showing some kids NOT get into the college of their dreams is not humiliation for entertainment. I think it’s extremely beneficial to watch, for anyone going into the application process. I watched that MTV True Life about geniuses where two kids with perfect profiles get rejected from dream schools. It’s humbling. Brings you back to reality. And helps prepare you for what might happen. Solid learning experience.</p>
<p>^yeah, except it most certainly isn’t beneficial for the ones actually on TV. sort of exposing they’re dreams to the world. and watching them get crushed :/</p>
<p>hey, its not like this kids don’t know what they are signing up for. plus, who says they are all going to get their hopes and dreams crushed? they might be smart but thats just the optimist in me. :)</p>
<p>some of them might. but, knowing MTV and reality TV in general, they’ll probably try to choose the people with high hopes who don’t have a chance. to make it more entertaining</p>
<p>Guys, I would be very cautious about doing this. One kid at my school went onto the show “Made” by MTV. The thing was a joke. Everything seemed false and the kid became an outcast (more so than he already was). Just think deeply about what you’re getting yourself into.</p>
<p>I have a strong feeling this is True Life.</p>
<p>True Life: I’m Applying To My Dream School OR
True Life Goes Ivy.</p>
<p>Reality show? How about some honors student who wants to get to Temple or Rutgers, would that make sense?</p>
<p>True Life: I’m applying to my Dream School</p>
<p>Nice title, but dreams do have obstacles.</p>
