I applied to 32 colleges, all with a fee waiver. If I could have done anything differently, I would have applied to less safeties and more competitive schools. I was admitted into schools I never could have imagined getting into, and I was also rejected from a bunch of schools I thought I had a chance with.
My biggest surprise was being admitted to USC and receiving an INCREDIBLE financial aid package.
The process this year was a complete lottery (it seems) and a very confusing time in all of our lives.
