RE: # of Apps:

It’s going to be a bunch. I think especially this year it will be a bit of a crap shoot where she gets in. So having more chances will help, maybe even a bit more than normal. Her schedule is comparatively light first semester, and she knows she is going to be spending a ton of time on essays. She is not excited by that, but understands that it is the reality. The push for the selective school is from her not me. So if she wants to reach that goal she probably has to spend a good chunk of her free time between now and Jan 1 crafting essays. That would include info sessions, instagram stalking, etc. to know what to write to show her fit.

Essays can run into March depending on Honors Colleges and scholarships. You can usually reuse some essays but not all. It’s a lot of work.
