<p>Okay so here’s the deal, I didn’t really expect to have any interest in college but yet hey here I am. So any advice on schools I should apply to and others I should apply to as reach schools and such would just be fantastic. </p>

<p>List of schools I am applying to:
UCLA
USB
UCSB
Cornell
University of Wisconsin- Madison
NC State
University of Virginia
University of Washington</p>

<p>So yea we’ll see how this all ends up going!</p>

<p>I’m not sure of your intended major at Cornell or more importantly what school(s) you are applying to, but in general I can tell you it is a Far Reach. That is the only school I really know well enough to chance you for</p>

<p>Just curious, does the fact that my Grandfather and my Uncle went to Cornell mean anything when applying?</p>

4

<p>Very little, if at all, does legacy matter at Cornell… Did they happen to be major benefactors?</p>

5

<p>My grandfather did happen to help design a few buildings on the campus, but nothing to monetary</p>

6

<p>Gray area for me, I couldn’t say…</p>

7

<p>Soooo what you’re getting at is that I have a solid 80% chance of getting in? Great!</p>

8

<p>Not at all sure how you came to that conclusion…</p>

<p>As for the UCs, LA and Berkeley are reaches. You might have good chances with Santa Barbara, though.</p>
