<p>I regret not applying to Tufts.</p>
<p>I regret not applying to some LACs just because my parents really hate the idea of my attending one. I was considering Amherst, Bates, Bowdoin, Claremont McKenna, and Pomona before.</p>
<p>I also kind of regret not applying to Princeton just for the lulz. And and arts school with a creative writing program, like Pratt.</p>
<p>Amherst is the shiz indeed.</p>
<p>Now that the dust has settled, I regret not applying to Barnard (the most. Columbia was my dream, now it’s dead, and I really would have been okay with Barnard. Now I know. Sigh.), Georgetown, Claremont McKenna, and Tufts. It happens. Vassar a little, too.</p>
<p>I really don’t think you guys should be regretting about these things. What happened has already happened. The grass is always greener on the other side for many people. I think you’ll find that many people who are not happy at big schools, wished they applied to smaller schools. People who went for tech schools, may now wished they applied to well-rounded schools. People who went to smaller schools, may now want big schools. You made the best decision you could at that time period in your life.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Not really. My parents’ geographic parameters plus appeasing their vanity by going to the most prestigious school I could get into kept me from making the best decision I could make.</p>
<p>I wish I had applied to Penn State</p>
<p>I regret not applying to more universities. I only apply to ONE, and it was my top choice. I knew I would enter, even if it is the best in my state, but I didn’t have the thrill of being accepted anywhere else, and having an actual choice. If I did it again, I would have apply to Emory, University of Florida, Cornell or Princeton, Duke and UPenn. I’m afraid that my high school was really connected to the top one, and it seemed like an obvious choice. =/</p>
<p>STOP! Don’t torture yourselves anymore haha</p>
<p>I regret not applying to Northwestern…</p>
<p>My son was originally convinced that he absolutely, positively had to leave the state to go to school, and so is now attending Indiana University.</p>
<p>While he is happy there, and graduates next year, if he had to do it over again, he would have also applied to UC Irvine, UC Santa Barbara, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, and UC Santa Cruz. He would have then transferred as a junior from either one of these schools or even from a California community college to USC or Emory or Indiana for business.</p>
<p>He realizes that he could have saved us around $40,000 to $50,000 by doing this–and that he could have then used that money for law school instead.</p>
<p>Vassar, such a lovely school.
Ran outta time, and the creative “my space” question kinda freaked me out =.= I’m Vassar Oberlin Macalester type, but not creative enough to create a great “my space” stuff</p>
<p>And to some extend, Franklin &Marshall, i dunno why</p>
<p>should have applied to Tufts</p>
<p>I regret not applying to NYU. I love New York so I applied to Fordham (as a a safety) and Columbia (as a high reach). The college that I’ll probably attend (USC) is no where near New York.</p>
<p>I regret applying to Syracuse University because to be honest, I really didn’t like the school and just applied to it as a safety, safety school because I didn’t think I’d get into college. I’m an international and probably took someone else’s spot - that someone may have really wanted my place. Sigh.</p>
<p>I’m in a french high school so I had no Gpa or anything before applying to decide what school was a match and which one was a reach. I ended up applying to a lot of schools that were kind of safeties (I got in everywhere with honors and scholarships…), I didn’t apply to any Ivy and that’s what I regret most!</p>
<p>I definitely regret not applying to Columbia SEAS, idk if I would have gotten in but still. I did get into RPI though and I enrolled there. I’m thinking of trying to transfer but Columbia is definitely expensive so I’m not sure. I applied to Cornell Engineering and was rejected so I assumed I would not get into Columbia, but all my friends said I would and I figured out that the main reason I was rejected from Cornell was probably because I did not fill the Chemistry requirement for the engineering program there.</p>
<p>Regret applying to: Emory
Regret NOT applying to: Wesleyan… maybe Brown or Dartmouth but I dont think about it too much</p>
<p>soooo glad I applied to Bowdoin :), it was a random school I threw on my list and I fell in love in with it</p>
<p>Regret applying: Birmingham Southern, University of Alabama</p>
<p>Regret not applying: Columbia, some good LACs in NY (such as Vassar, Hamilton), SUNY Geneseo</p>
<p>I got accepted to a good LAC. Still, I wish I had applied some schools on the list and got into somewhere even better.</p>
<p>I regret not applying to Carnegie Mellon, and I regret applying to Vanderbilt.</p>
<p>I wish I hadn’t applied to too many safeties. My hgih school record wasn’t the best and my guidance counselor reminded me of this, so I just picked okay schools and got into all.</p>
<p>I wish I had at least applied to UCONN. I think I felt lucky just to be able to graduate so I didn’t really try to reach that high. </p>
<p>But oh well, I’m planning to transfer anyway!</p>
