God I don't know if this joke will come off well but i'll give it a shot. Sorry for the disclaimer. Junie are you half asian half black?

applicannot

Applying to...

University of Pittsburgh (rolling, will applying in mid-August at diversity event)
Yale University (SCEA)
George Washington University
Boston University
Washington University in St. Louis
Rice University

But I'd prefer to skip all of that and just apply ED to GW. I can't because of the money, but I may anyways.

anyone here doing questbridge? Also isn't like a lot of applications starting in July or sometime in august. I don't know I could be wrong since the dates from Florida colleges are different then northern colleges.

You can start your common app on July 1st.

BlackRose21

yeah ok I wasn't sure thanks for the info.

Hey BlackRose21! How've you been?
Also, can you apply to Questbridge even if you didn't apply earlier in the year? (I got a letter from them, but I never applied because it was just for summer programs) How does it work?

BlackRose21

hey Melody224! I've been good you? Yeah you can definatly apply to the college match if you didn't apply for the summer program part of it. Go to QuestBridge National College Match Program

it will tell you all about it. I'm still new to how that works. But if still have any questions just pm me!

Vanessaaa

i like THIS! but im class of 2013 lol

thefranchize9

i can't do questbridge cuz i need to retake some tests crazy studying is about to happen in the next two months.

BananaSandwich15

Don't let test scores stop you. you can always apply and update later. you just have to take the tests early in the year

Obstinate

I did the Questbridge College Prep. I may be applying through Questbridge RD to a few schools if ED to Brown doesn't work out. Man, I love the free apps

thefranchize9

Did you get the college prep scholarship. I applied for that but didn't get it.

Ohboi

Yay for intelligent African Americans!
I like this thread. lol.

The anxiety from the application process is already killing me, even though I haven't applied anywhere yet. Great GPA (3.8), crappy SAT (1840), ehhh SAT II's, kinda good ACT(28). I'm applying to:

NYU (Stern, RD) #1
Northeastern #2 (the rest in no order of preference)
Boston U
Columbia U
Harvard
Princeton
Syracuse U
SUNY Binghamton
RPI
UPenn (Wharton)...MAYBE
(I doubt I'm going to get into the Ivy's though)
and my backup: HVCC
