<p>I don't think Ivy League admissions officers really go around and dish about common applicants. Most of the people who are accepted DID apply to many other great colleges as well. One of my friends applied to every single Ivy League school and was rejected by all of them. It wasn't the fact that she applied to all of them that caused her rejection, it was the lack of care she put into each application because of the overwhelming volume she had to get through!</p>
<p>Anyway, back to the original topic- my safeties were SUNY Binghamton, Drew University, Wellesley, and NYU.</p>
