-Princeton University
-Stanford University
-Cornell University
-College of William and Mary
-Swarthmore College
-Oberlin College
-North Carolina Central
<p>Mine went to Rennselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) on a full ride. #2 went to MIT. Other people went to Berkeley (out-of-state), Virginia (out-of-state), Dartmouth, Columbia (Barnard College), Notre Dame, the Coast Guard Academy, Bowdoin, Brandeis, and a few more that I can't remember.</p>
<p>Stanford (Accepted at CalTech, MIT, Berkeley)
Stanford (Accepted at CalTech, Berkeley)
Stanford (Accepted at Brown Direct Med, Northwestern, Rejected from Yale)
Pennsylvania (ED)
Pennsylvania (ED)
UCLA (Accepted at Berkeley, Rejected at Harvard, Stanford, Yale)
USC (Rejected at Northwestern)</p>
<p>I went to an LA/Orange County area public magnet school (underfunded, in a middle-class area.)</p>
<p>I, on the other hand, was barely scraping it into the top 15% of my graduating class (which was 180 people large), with my 3.73. I got into Princeton (where I go), Berkeley, UCLA, Reed, St. John's MD. I got waitlisted from Columbia and Pomona College.</p>
<p>Regarding the OP: wow, NC Central is completely random compared to the others and should have been an ubersafety in light of the other schools he applied to and was accepted to!</p>
<p>plus he has a full ride to Harvard due to this major scholarship won...non Harvard affiliated but its a merit based scholarship...but still it's freaking insane...</p>
<p>Two twins shared valedictorian: Accepted to Notre Dame, UCLA, UC Berkeley, waitlisted at Tufts, rejected at MIT, Princeton. They are going to Notre Dame.</p>
<p>She got into American, and St. Bens or something like that. Nothing very special... she got rejected from Stanford and Gorgetown. She is heartbroken that she will be going to St. Bens. While people below her in rank got into better and more selective schools. Last year our validictorian went to Mt. Hood Community College and the year before that the validictorian went to University of Portland. Our validictorians are usually grade geeks so the people below them get into better schools because they seem to be more well rounded. Although this year's is impressive.</p>
