10 Universities not 1 get admitted??

<p>I am going to apply to 10 Universities, the few ivies and 2 top LAC’s and stanford.</p>

<p>If I have good Gpa and class rank.
With sat scores of 1350/700/750/720
Good essays and recommadations and I am an international.</p>

<p>Is there any chance that I am not admitted at any of the 10?
And how big is the chance do you think?</p>

<p>Yes, you could get rejected by all. You need a safety. Even the most stellar-appearing applicants are not guaranteed admission to the most select universities. Meanwhile, from what you have posted, your stats, recommendations and essays sound simply average for the types of places you’re applying to. Looks like you have the usual long odds of getting acceptances from such universities. They reject thousands of studernts with stats similar to or stronger than yours.</p>

<p>The problem is with safties, that they dont give enough finaid to international, my only chance to get education is US is top Universities/Colleges</p>

<p>try williams</p>

<p>yeah I was considering to apply to that school.
But I am afraid that I am not get admitted to any school in the end.
At this point I dont care which school admit, because I have not lot of choices, less prestigious isn’t available to an international, that needs money</p>

<p>Are you applying to anywhere else outside the US? Consider those your safetys especially since in the UK you get offers so its helpful to know what ure backups are before applying.</p>

<p>yeah I am applying in the Netherlands and I am now considering applying to UK, what schools in Uk is good to consider?</p>

<p>im not sure anyone on here knows the answer to that…but yeah good luck</p>

<p>Are you sure that there aren’t schools that would welcome the diversity and give merit to internationals? You can’t count at all on schools with such low admit rates, when your SATI is below the accepted student average.</p>

<p>Take a look at some less competitive colleges, particularly those that are in more isolated areas and therefore have difficulty attracting ethnic and racial diversity.</p>

<p>For instance, here’s some of what Grinnell offers international students. It is a top 25 liberal arts college:</p>

<p>"3) Special Scholarships: Grinnell offers a limited number of scholarships that meet the full demonstrated need. These are extremely competitive scholarships. Scholarships are reserved for students from the following countries and regions: </p>

<ul>
<li> People’s Republic of China</li>
<li> Nepal</li>
<li> the Middle East and Asia</li>
<li> Africa</li>
<li> Latin America</li>
<li> Eastern and Central Europe (including those regions of the former Soviet Union)"

</ul>

<p>Grinnell sounds like a fantastic school. They have a ton of money and bring lots of events to campus and can really finance anything they want. It made my dd’s short list. It was named “hottest school” by some publication this year, but I think the deadline has expired on Jan 20. If you are applying next year to colleges, do yourself a favor and do more research on these small gems of schools that will really give you fantastic opportunities.</p>

<p>There are many good universities in the UK, but its more distributed according to speciality, so what do you want to study?</p>
