Applying to College
1

<p>Just of of curiosity, how many schools do all you rising seniors plan to apply to? :)</p>

<p>1-3
4-6
7-9
10-13
14-16
17+ (Geezzz...)</p>

2

<p>At least 3</p>

3

<p>17+?</p>

<p>More like 27+ for me :)</p>

4

<p>Probably 10 colleges so that I’ll have many options. :)</p>

<p>The “Shot gun” method is always helpful because you truthfully don’t know how college admissions will go in advance. Having many options is a good thing so you’ll have back up plans, and can compare offers.</p>

5

<p>I plan to apply to at least 3 but I’m guessing I may apply to about 10-12.</p>

6

<p>5 or 6</p>

<p>1 Reach
2 or 3 Matches
2 Safeties</p>

7

<p>I’m planning on applying to 10-13 schools. I’m truly interested in all of them, and just want to see how admissions and financial aid pan out to help determine where to matriculate.</p>

8

<p>Probably either 7 or 8. Depends on how my road trip in August goes.</p>

9

<ol>
<li>i want to apply to a bunch, but i also dont want to spend a fortune on application fees and test sending fees. it will be like 4 reaches, 4 matches and 2 safeties</li>
</ol>

10

<ol>
<li>
3 safeties
5 matches
2 reaches</li>
</ol>

<p>it really just all depends on which i would leave with the least amount of debt.</p>

11

<p>7-13 maybe…gotta visit colleges!</p>

12

<p>4-6</p>

<p>I’m in between 2 colleges I really like, but I’ll apply to some others as safeties and others just to see if I can get in. :)</p>

13

<p>Planning on 21 at the most, 14 at the fewest.</p>

14

<p>I’m debating on whether its more logical to apply to more reaches, matches, or safeties.</p>

15

<p>I’d say from most to least, matches, reaches, safeties. :slight_smile: ^^^</p>

16

<p>10-13
1 safety (so far…might add one more)
3 matches (might add 2 more)
7 reaches</p>

17

<p>Looking at 3 reaches, 4 matches, 2 safeties</p>

18

<p>To the poster who said 23, I hope you were joking. 1) waste of money 2) your counselor will probably refuse to do them all.</p>

19

<p>i have 9 on my list now, might cut one of the matches</p>

<p>3 reaches
3 matches (2 good, 1 low)
3 safeties</p>

20

<p>probably something like…</p>

<p>4 reaches
3 matches
3 safeties</p>
