Seniors: What schools did you apply to?

Archive High School Class of 2021
24

I only applied BS/MS PA programs

  1. Thomas Jefferson University (accepted EA)
  2. Quinnipiac (accepted EA)
  3. Saint Louis (accepted EA, waiting on PA decision)
  4. Hofstra (accepted EA, waiting on PA decision)
  5. Desales (accepted EA)
  6. Seton Hill (accepted EA)
  7. Kings (accepted EA)

I want to become a PA (not sure which specialty yet, thinking of primary care, surgery, or emergency) in as little time as possible because I want to pay as little as possible for college. I am sooo excited to learn things related to PA! I’m also looking forward to the change in the environment.

To be honest, I am not really sure! I like to meet new people and spark meaningful conversations, so I guess my answer is… anyone!

I regret applying to so many RD because I’m having trouble keeping myself distracted while waiting for decisions.

Hi!

  2. Cal Poly SLO (Accepted)
  3. CSU Fullerton
  4. CSU Los Angeles (Accepted)
  5. UC Berkeley

  15. Pepperdine University
  16. Loyola Marymount University
  17. University of Arizona (Accepted)
  18. Arizona State University (Accepted)

I am looking for a good education in the health sciences and I primarily applied as a public health or some type of life science major. I’m also looking to move closer to my girlfriend who lives in SoCal but she’s applying to university next year. After my undergrad, I’d like to go into medicine and eventually work in research for life extension therapy or become a family medicine practitioner. Of the schools I listed, USC is probably my top choice and after that UC Santa Barbara and Cal Poly SLO are close seconds. I don’t want to go to a school that’s TOO competitive and crush my GPA alongside my med school hopes and dreams LOL.

After the pandemic, I’d like to see my grandparents because I haven’t seen them in a long time.

Hi! I don’t usually post about myself, but it was really cool to read all of your responses, so I wanted to share too! I’ve applied to:

  1. Brown University
  2. Bryn Mawr College
  3. Connecticut College
  4. Drew University (accepted EA)
  5. Gettysburg College
  6. Haverford College
  7. Lafayette College
  8. Lehigh University
  9. Princeton University
  10. Sarah Lawrence College (accepted EA)
  11. Stevens Institute of Technology
  12. Swarthmore College
  13. Vassar College

I’d like to major in biology and/or computer science (or computational biology if I go to Brown!), and I’d really love to get some experience doing research that combines the two. I’m also excited (and nervous) to meet new people, since I’ve lived in the same town for almost my entire life. I’m also hoping to gain some more independence and life skills.

Although I don’t have a specific person in mind for the third question, I am excited to meet all of my future college classmates and professors. Mostly, I really want to meet people with experiences and opinions and insights that are different from mine, so I can understand the world from different points of view.

I can’t wait to see where all of us end up! Congratulations to everyone who has already committed, and best of luck to everyone else! :smile:
