Hey, thanks so much! Time has passed so fast since I was applying then, it’s almost imperceptible that I’m already a senior.
I appreciate the advice. 22 is definitely a bit much, and I’m not entirely sure I’m applying to all of them; I’m not 100% set on Harvard, Tufts, Carleton, Cornell, WPI, Clark, and UMichigan. We’ll see how it pans out, but I bet I’ll apply to a handful fewer.
I’m definitely super lucky to be in-state for Purdue. Its engineering program is fantastic, and hopefully it’ll be affordable with the reduced tuition plus hopefully good aid.
