Hey there everyone! Good to be back. No, @IAmTheGOAT is not me, but from what I can see we took very similar approaches to our college application process.
@TheAtlantic No need to be “disgusted” just because some people are a little more creative in their approach…
Here are all my schools:
Amherst College
Boston College
Brown University
College of William and Mary
Colorado School of Mines
Columbia University
Cornell University
Dartmouth College
Duke University
Fordham University
Georgetown University
Harvard University
Lehigh University
Northwestern University
NYU Stern
Princeton University
Rutgers University
Stanford University
University of Chicago
University of Michigan
University of Notre Dame
University of Pennsylvania
University of Pittsburgh
University of Virginia
Vanderbilt University
Villanova University
Williams College
Yale University
Yale-NUS College
So far, I have been accepted to Fordham, Villanova, U Pitt and Rutgers, waitlisted at UChicago, Colorado School of Mines, William and Mary, and Notre Dame, and rejected from Boston College, Northwestern, UVa, Vanderbilt, and Yale-NUS. The rejections from Boston College and Vanderbilt came as a bit of a surprise but I wasn’t too shocked (Boston College was the one place I submitted a rather weak essay); however, getting waitlisted at Colorado and W&M was very surprising indeed - my ACT is a full 5 points higher than the averages at those schools. I’m thinking it’s Tufts syndrome. Currently I’m waiting on all the Ivy’s and I’ve got my eye on NYU Stern, Amherst, and UMich, and perhaps Lehigh as a safety/low match.
