<p>So this may sound silly, but I had been planning to apply to U Michigan (although I didn't believe I would ever get in) but now as I'm finalizing my applications, I'm realizing that I really don't want to go that far away. I live in MA now and I just fell in love with a local school in Boston that is much more realistic cost-wise and as far as my ability to get in. </p>
<p>I already sent out one recommendation letter and my transcript, does this mean I am required to apply? </p>
<p>I know it may sound stupid, but I just want to make sure. I'd much rather send my transcript out to a school I feel more comfortable at. Thanks in advance!</p>
