I think there’s a ton of great advice but not much on what you should do next. First, If the deadline hasn’t come yet, apply to that college that you think is too selective for you. My initial thought on you getting rejected from selective schools is that you were overqualified. Definitely don’t sell yourself short. Your stats are basically perfect.
If you find it’s too late to apply to anywhere else, then I think that you should go to one of the schools that accepted you. Then, if you really still want to be somewhere else, you should transfer to somewhere else that you feel suits you best. If you do really well (as I’m sure you will), the amazing grades that you made in high school will only strengthen your transfer application. Get as involved as you can at the college you attend. Volunteer club, take up an instrument and join a band, see if any professors have any research opportunities, do things that can be listed as extracurriculars but that you still thoroughly enjoy. On top of this, take as many classes as you can, whether or not they are hard. Take classes that interest you and that you think will be challenging. At the end of all of this, you will either make an excellent transfer applicant, or you’ll become so involved in the school that you’re at that you realize that you’re incredibly happy with the school that you’re at. In the end, it’s a win-win. Of course, you’ll have to go through the grueling admissions process again, which very well may end up with some disappointing results, but I’ll tell you from experience, seeing a shiny 4.0 GPA at the bottom of your transcript is so satisfying that you can’t help but to be proud and satisfied with yourself at the end of the semester.
Tbh, I’m currently waiting for transfer the decision from my absolute top school. I honestly have no idea what I’m gonna do if I don’t get in which isn’t a great feeling because it’s really really selective. I have 1-2.5 months to wait for decisions and my nerves are reeling. Trust me if you do the transfer thing, prepare for the worst but hope for the best.
I really do hope all goes well for you <3
