<p>Hey guys, I'm applying RD too and I'll definitely be practicing my ultimate frisbee skills over the summer if I get in! I haven't visited yet, but my impressions of Carleton are awesome and it's one of my top choices. Good luck you all you guys!</p>
<p>I'm applying RD to Carleton and am also applying to Wesleyan, Oberlin, Grinnell, Reed, and Pomona. Went to the campus for a dorm stay and an interview, and everyone was very nice and the interview was relaxed. The best thing about the actual application process was the application - no stupid grid of activities and hours per week. It was very flexible and I thought made it easier to present yourself more favorably. Hope I get in, but I hear that they hardly ever turn down a National Merit Semifinalist, so I'm hoping that will get me in.</p>
<p>yup apparently they love us national merit semifinalists at Carleton</p>
<p>ooo didn't know that about ntl merit semis. definitely very cool.</p>
<p>carleton's around my third choice. but i heard they're incredibly generous with financial aid, so that might tip me over into going there. assuming i get in. :(</p>
<p>i thought applying to nine schools was psychotic!! whoa, 11-14, and NO common app? i had no right to complain about apps in comparison to that! :O</p>
<p>oh, just to clarify, i did use the common app for i think it was 9 schools. also, i had one app for 3 ucs. so i filled out 4 different apps, which wasn't too bad.</p>
<p>i'm glad to hear that carleton has generous financial aid. that's definitely going to play a crucial role in my decision.</p>

<p>My prospective major is physics, and I hear that Carleton has a nice physics department. Like some of you on here, I applied to a large number of schools, mainly because I need financial aid and will have to compare offers. Also, I'm not so confident about my chances everywhere...</p>

<p>applied to 11 schools. first choice is pomona followed by bunch of different schools. probably do something in math and bio, take some japanese to keep from forgetting and maybe pick up a 3rd or 4th language, depending on whether i continue french from HS.</p>
<p>cavalier-- i want to major in physics too! and ditto to the finaid stuff. hopefully we both get in and they pay ALL OF IT. heh heh.</p>
<p>just wanted to be organized. :)</p>

<p>Have any of you guys already submitted your application?</p>
<p>Hey put me on the list too! I sent my app in online about a week ago, but I haven't gotten an email confirming that they got it yet. Is anyone in the same situation?</p>
<p>ive already sent mine in. i did online with common app. fast, easy and free.</p>
<p>adummb05- They send you a postcard when your application is complete.</p>
<p>I'm in the same situation as you adummb05. I guess we'll just have to wait for the postcard then.</p>
