Losing my marbles: College Edition

I am losing my crap right now. I have withdrawal all my applications just so I could go early decision with dartmouth. I do not know why. I have 2 safeties and 2 ivys. Dartmouth says they will come out with their decisions soon and I am genuinely so scared.

Withdraw the others AFTER you hear that you got in ED to Dartmouth, not before

Were those applications allowed under the ED agreement with Dartmouth? If so, woo boy. If not, it is what it is, those are the terms.

Hi, I have tried to help on your other threads.

It sounds like you had to withdraw a few since you can not overlap some ED and REA applications.

Just resubmit those as RD if you are still interested. Do not bother with the international options you had - there are too many additional expenses for you to navigate right now with those.

I thought you had an interview with Harvard - did that not happen, or maybe I ma not remembering correctly.

To keep you from loosing your marbles while you wait revisit the list of “the meet 100% need” schools and apply to a few more. They will all give you application waivers.

Beyond the Ivy League, here are a few others on the list when you page down.

Haverford College Aid is loan-free if your parents earn less than $60,000. Families making more than this threshold can expect small loans ranging from $1,500 to $3,000 a year.
Lafayette College Aid is often loan-free if your parents earn less than $50,000.
Lehigh University 90% of undergraduate families with an income less than $75,000 received grants and scholarships in an amount greater than the full cost of tuition.
