<p>Somehow I find that sad. There’s an plethora of great colleges and universities out there. It sad to think that kids think there is such a miniscule list of college possibilities. Choosing a college out of fear is totally the wrong reason to choose a college.</p>
<p>^Think of this process another way: 30 years ago, when I was applying to college, I only sent out one application. Sure there were a plethora of colleges and universities to consider, but I didn’t need to apply to them all. No one would do that. Back then, there wasn’t really an “application process” then, though there was a whole less stress. Darn, I missed out!</p>
