How many colleges are/did you apply(ing) to?

<p>Either 3 or 15-20 for me. Almost for sure 15-20. (It depends on whether I get in ED. I won't.)</p>

<p>My school limits us to about 10 i think...is this "legal"? If it were up to me, I might have end up applying to about 13</p>

<p>"I applied to 12 or so and got into all but 1. It's really quite a waste to apply to this many though because you find that you're only REALLY interested in maybe 4 or 5 of them."</p>

<p>So true... that's what i've been finding out with making my list.</p>

<p>Same here. If I applied to every single college on my list, there'd be something like 25. When I sit down and make those "If I had to apply right now" lists, though, there's usually 8.</p>

<p>I applied to a bunch of schools and, in retrospect, I should have applied to more. Non-legacy, non-urm, non-athlete, non-hooked, bright, well-rounded applicants should apply to as many schools as possible.</p>
