Pton EDers - RD round apps

<p>Have you guys started on them?</p>

<p>I'd like to hold on to my ED acceptance dream, but it's time to face reality.</p>

<p>Where is everyone applying?</p>

<p>For me, there's Dartmouth and my state school.</p>

<p>Addendum: That was an innocent question. I'm not trying to "size up" my competition or anything xP</p>

<p>i'm not princeton ed... but for me it's pretty much upenn/mit jhu or my state school, cuz if i don't get into any of those 3 i pretty much don't have a shot at a lot of schools i'm applying to</p>

<p>Reach:Stanford, Cornell, Upenn <--I really hope I get into one of those
Match: Carnegie Mellon, WashU
Safety: Umich, Uillinois, Rutgers</p>

<p>Possibly:
McGill, U of Toronto, Waterloo or Western Ontario</p>

<p>I started over Thanksgiving break.</p>

<p>Stanford, Dartmouth, Columbia
WashU, Vassar, Williams
...
UTAustin</p>

<p>Reach: Stanford, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Wharton@Penn, MIT, Brown
Safety: Guaranteed entry at 4 colleges: Univ of Warwick for Econ in England, UBC, U of Waterloo (CompSci), U of Toronto (all deferred till 2006 Aug.)</p>

<p>Here's my list:</p>

<p>Harvard <----Forced by Father :(
Cornell <----Ithaca's awesome!
Brown <----8 year PLME program
JHU <----Only school that is kinda out of vibe, since it's the only one immersed in a gigantic city</p>

<p>Carnegie Mellon <----The one exception to what I said about JHU
William and Mary <----Great campus!!!
UVA <----No idea why I'm applying here, but oh well
UMD-College Park <---- Honors Program, my state school</p>

<p>I have started my applications but not my essays. Here is my list in order of preference:</p>

<p>Cornell - reach
William & Mary - match/slight reach
University of Virginia - slight reach
University of Richmond -match</p>

<p>I started my apps. My list, in order of preference</p>

<p>Notre Dame (Close second to Princeton, football, campus, halls, perfect!)
UPenn (Great school, too many grad students though)
Columbia (Love NYC, but it's expensive)
WUSTL (Great school)
Penn State (Already accepted! Happy Valley is awesome, JoePa is back)
The College of New Jersey (will get lots of money from them)</p>

<p>Well, after Pton it is as follows, </p>

<p>Cornell (Ithaca truly is gorges...)
Duke (Yeh, go NC.. The Princeton of the South)
Penn State (Already in there as well... Happy Valley!!!!)
Kenyon (Ohio family school)
Podunk U. (Reach, I know...)</p>
