Other information: I have Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Panic Disorder, and receive special accommodations which I rarely use (not sure how to express that in applications). Does have an effect on my school work, but for the most part I’ve been able to work through it. Freshman year, the year I was diagnosed with Panic Disorder, was especially hard. Some/most essays will deal with this.

I attended pre-college at Carnegie Mellon University the summer before my junior year.

I realize a lot of people don't know much about many of these schools...I'm looking for chances mostly for UMich and Villanova.

Hi srgirl6,

I already chanced you for UMich before, so my eval remains the same.
However, I will chance you for your new schools that I'm familiar with (why did I remember you? ... your panic disorder ... that's still very fresh in my memory because very few people have that):

Michigan State: In -- Honors College is a safety match (From what I know, most alumni of MSU encourage their kids to attend State and to hate Blue and Yellow --- just found this quite interesting ... but UMich does offer a much more reputable education, because it really is internationally renowed)

Albion: In

Kalamazoo: In

Villanova: Safety match (They have a really good business program from what I know)

I hope you found this helpful.

It's strange in my family, really, because my mom (who went to State), would actually rather have me go to UMich. It's weird, because in my experience with classmates, you're absolutely right.

Thank you.

You are in for sure at all of them except maybe umich, which you will still probably get into. Oh, and my dad also went to state and he wants me to go to umich or kalamazoo. Good Luck.
