Regret Not Applying to X School?

<p>Anyone else regret NOT applying to a certain college?</p>

<p>Columbia and Yale are causing me grief for not having my program of choice!</p>

<p>Let’s see:</p>

<p>University Chicago
University of Virginia (considered it, but then backed off)</p>

<p>That’s really it, actually.</p>

<p>University of Michigan.</p>

<p>Knew it wasn’t worth it because they are pathetic with OOS aid. </p>

<p>Still dreaming of attending for grad school, though :)</p>

<p>Hendrix and Pomona. I’m applying to CMC, and a bunch of other southern LACs, but I wish I had the cohones to try Pomona and had learned about Hendrix earlier on.</p>

<p>Georgia. I probably would have loved it there.</p>

<p>UChicago. Who knew it was going to jump from #15 to #9 the year I applied. </p>

<p>:-( damnit. Could have attended a T10 university. I got discouraged by the “nerdy” atmosphere lol. DAMMIT</p>

<p>^
Nerdy? Yet you chose Hopkins, Phead? ;)</p>

<p>Haverford would’ve made my list.</p>

<p>I’m happy with no regrets. I think the only way to do it is to disregard the rankings as much as possible and make a list based on fit. That way you’re happy no matter where you end up.</p>

<p>MIT Sloan … I just backed out for sloan because I thought I had too slim a chance, but now I regret it</p>

<p>Notre Dame – I loved the school and should have applied to at least one Catholic university.</p>

<p>UPenn - Wharton. Applied ED to NYU - Stern instead…didn’t think I have the chance. I’m happy with NYU, but there’s always the “what if?” you know? D=</p>

<p>(got into Stern though =])</p>

<p>wish i applied to vanderbilt ED… applied RD. bleh there goes my chance of somehow getting in. </p>

<p>i also wish i applied to lehigh.</p>

<p>Oddly enough, maybe some of the UC’s. Even though I’m OOS. Or the more popular CSU’s?
I might have been able to find a good match even though isn’t that much of a chance if you’re not in-state.</p>

<p>Princeton. Was afraid so applied to Dartmouth ED and got in. Not complaining though…</p>

<p>I kind of wanted to apply to Stanford, Columbia, Northwestern, and Brown, just for fun. Except college applications aren’t “fun”, which is why I didn’t apply. Not to mention none of them have my program… I guess I understand why I didn’t hahah</p>

<p>POMONA. Mother wouldn’t let me apply to a 3rd school in California (Maybe I would’ve picked the first two differently if I’d known haha)</p>

<p>CMC. I was too tired to finish the supplement plus I thought I wouldn’t attend there over Georgetown. Now I’m kind of regretting it…oh well.</p>

<p>I would have liked to apply to more schools but I know that many I can consider for graduate school. To mention one school specifically, I didn’t apply to one of my major state schools Michigan State University; if accepted it would have been a great financial safety. Though the school is located in my current city, I would like the experience of being in a different city etc… I currently have no financial safety schools.</p>

<p>Yale and Brown.</p>
