<p>Sachoria…the only decision you HAVE right now is ED to BU. You were offered (according to your posts…which I find VERY suspect) $55,000 a year which covers the full cost of attendance. You cannot withdraw from that ED acceptance due to financial concerns if they offered you a full ride. Truthfully, I hope EVERY college you applied to has an adcom reading these posts. You run the risk of losing ALL your acceptances due to unethical use of the ED process. Just HOW many ED schools DID you apply to? Gotta wonder if BU and Vandy are the only ones.</p>

<p>Reflection
Strengths: SAT scores
Weaknesses: GPA, typo in essay, extracurriculars not that outstanding?
Why you think you were accepted/deferred/rejected: Probably SAT scores. I’m not sure if this is a product of caring about Northeastern’s admissions office caring about USNWR rankings more than other schools, but if I had a 3.7 and a 2000 instead of a 3.4 and a 2190, according to Naviance results I would have a slightly higher chance at being deferred at Northeastern EA.
What would you have done differently?: Worked harder freshman and sophomore year</p>
<p>[/list]Other Factors:
General Comments/Congratulations/Venting/Commiserations, etc: I’m very glad I got in, but I probably won’t receive enough financial aid to afford attending Northeastern. In this college process, I feel good that there is at least some school that wants me to take classes there and grow as a person with many wonderful students. Congrats on all the other EA admits! To those deferred, there is still a chance, Northeastern has told you that right there! To those rejected, you are not defined by your school. Go be awesome like you are at whatever school wants you to attend!
