Why didn’t you apply to ASU, considering you applied to U of A and NAU?
i tried but the application was closed
Given the date, am I correct in assuming that you applied relatively late to schools that were still accepting applications in May?
I have very little experience with late applications. However, my best guess is that you are going to get a lot of acceptances. You are probably going to need to put in some effort to figure out which schools you are most interested in and which school you want to attend.
I hope you can afford those schools.
What do you need/desire to have assessed with this list?
What is your aim in applying to these very different institutions, with completely different local environs, climate and culture?
You have acceptances in hand. Were you completely dissatisfied with the prospect of attending any of those schools?
Check your schools again. Grand Canyon University jumped out at me since I don’t recognize most of the others on that list, but GCU is a for-profit and mostly online. You really don’t want to have to deal with a sketchy undergrad university when you have acceptances from UC Merced and some good CSUs.
Cross out Grand Canyon.
Not sure why you’d apply to CBU Riverside since CSUN, UCM, and UA are all much, much better.
UMass Lowell, Quinnipiac, and WVU, LMU, and SMU jump at me as being the best universities on your list.
What’s your budget? (What can your parents afford to pay without loans)?
24 universities and no Public Ivy?
How come?
