it makes me angry when people apply to like 10 or more colleges. Why can't you people narrow down?

</p>
<p>I'm only applying to six. Some people might want to cast a wide net, because they want to compare financial aid packets.</p>
<p>Majoring in International Relations and minor in some random foreign language</p>
<ol>
<li> Lewis & Clark College</li>
<li> Allegheny College</li>
<li> Sweet Briar College</li>
<li> American University</li>
<li> Spelman College</li>
<li> Hollins University</li>
<li> Hobart and William Smith</li>
<li> Randolph-Macon Womans College</li>
</ol>
<p>response to thesiren:
I dont know about everyone, but all of the people I know who applied to 10+ schools were very well off, and did not need financial aid (3 ppl I know applied to 14 schools). maybe thats just my experience, but many people like me (in my experience) who need financial aid are encouraged by parents to narrow our college lists because of the application costs at high profile schools ($50-65)</p>
<p>I'm not sure on the final list, but here are the ones that I will apply to no matter what:</p>
<p>Yale University
University of Florida
Johns Hopkins University
Duke University</p>
<p>And here are the ones that I am considering but am not sure of at this point:
Dartmouth College
Princeton University
Harvard University
Pennsylvania
Rollins College
University of Chicago
Georgetown University
Washington University</p>

<p>theres really no other colleges that i want to go to.</p>
<p>plus, my parents are like "if you dont get into top college, you might as well get full scholarship to state school" so thats also why theres no real "match colleges"</p>
<p>Definately Applying:</p>
<p>Carleton
Macalester
Brandeis
Haverford
Oberlin
SUNY Geneseo</p>
<p>Considering</p>
<p>Skidmore

<p>Will probably want to add another safety to my list and I may change it up a bit</p>
<p>I am applying RD to the following schools:</p>
<p>Yale
Stanford
Penn
Wellesley
UChicago
Duke (in-state)
UNC-Chapel Hill (in-state)</p>
<p>Business Admin or Finance Major</p>
<p>-Wake Forest
-USC (Cali, not South Carolina)

-UMich</p>
<p>I'm probably only applying to these 5. I may apply to Northwestern, as it is Common App, or maybe Penn State, if I don't get into UW-Madison right away.</p>
<p>I want to major in chemistry and minor in either german or geology. Probably geology.</p>
<p>My number one school right now is Columbia. I'm still really iffy on the rest of my list, though. I know I wanna do ED at Columbia and if I'm deferred or rejected my safety school under RD stuff will be NCSU</p>
