Is anyone else already dreading decision time?

<p>I know I am. I have 5 schools I am completely in love with, and it's plausible I'll get into 4...I have no idea how on earth i'm going to choose...</p>

<p>Anyone else in this predicament.? Any advice?</p>

<p>Right now, all you can do is wait to see the FA packages and see if those “tip the scale” in any way. </p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>yes. but for the opposite reason…I’m afraid I’ll be rejected from all my top choices</p>

<p>Every time I see your name I imagine you as being Reggie Rocket</p>

<p>but anyway</p>

<p>I’m in a similar situation. So far I have heard from only two schools I’ve applied to. So far it is very likely I will be going to Iowa, and knowing that I have grown to like the school so much more. If I get accepted into all the schools I’ve applied to ( in total 7) I do not have any ideal how to decide ( but would figure out) as all the schools I’ve applied to I like and are unique. The main factor I would use in eliminating my choices is financial aid packages, which is more affordable etc…</p>

<p>I already know the order of which schools I like most but I probably won’t get into my top 2 and I already didn’t get into 4th choice but it was the must difficult to get into out of any that I applied.</p>

<p>Yes. I applied to thirteen schools, and I anticipate that I will get into four or more. If more than one gives me good scholarship money, I will truly be facing a tough decision.</p>

<p>If I get into my top choice, I’ll shriek out in joy and I’ll make it happen even if I can’t afford to pay, so i’m hoping this happens :)</p>

<p>Yes, I’m dreading it both ways.</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Possible rejection from top choices Brown and Dartmouth,
won’t know until April 1.</p></li>
<li><p>Choice between UMich Engrg OOS (COA likely $20K+)
in state Cal, UCLA, or UCSD (COA likely < $10K, I think
I have a fair shot at one of the three)
and USC Viterbi/Marshall (COA likely $20K).</p></li>
</ol>

<p>I"m hoping financials help decide things for me</p>

<p>*2. Choice between UMich Engrg OOS (COA likely $20K+)
in state Cal, UCLA, or UCSD (COA likely < $10K, I think
I have a fair shot at one of the three)
and USC Viterbi/Marshall (COA likely $20K). *</p>

<p>Where are you getting those Cost of Attendances from???</p>

<p>The OOS COA for UMich is about $50k per year
USC is about $53k per year
In-state UC’s are about $28k (and going up)</p>

<p>COA = tuition, fees, room, board, books, misc.</p>

<p>Were you looking at only the semester or quarter costs???</p>

<p>Even though I know I probably won’t get into UDel I mite still cry just becasue I screwed around high and ended up with a 2.98 and could of easily had a 3.5 and with my SATs I would have been a shoe in.</p>

<p>I’m dreading it because I know I probably wont be accepted into my top choice but I want it to be here NOW just so I can find out :)</p>

<br>

<br>

<p>It is my projected COA after need based FA …
EFC=0 for UCs, TBD Profile based.</p>

<p>I’m dreading for weird reason. I applied ED to my second choice coz it’s affordable and I have higher chance of getting in there. Now I’m dreading, hoping that I would get rejected to my ED school and accepted to my No.1 choice.</p>
