<p>Pitt
U Delaware
Lehigh
U Richmond
Cornell
U Michigan
Northwestern
Columbia & Vanderbilt</p>

<p>I think you are ok , Pitt, UDelaware and Lehigh should all be ok If you are not in Virginia than URichmond may be difficult.</p>

<p>What state do you live in? Remember, a safety is one in which you are likely to be admitted and that you can afford.</p>

<p>U Richmond is a private school that likes to have students from all over the country. Therefore, if you are from Virginia, it may be a slight negative factor; if you from elsewhere, it is likely to be a net positive factor.</p>

<p>If you’ve already applied, you should be admitted to Pittsburgh shortly, Delaware shortly thereafter. Relax.</p>

<p>agree with ClassicRocker about admittance, but not necessarily about notification…</p>

<p>unless something has changed, UDel is one of the latest notifications of all the publics in the country…All decisions are released in March…</p>

<p>Make sure you visit Lehigh (if you haven’t already done so) if you live in the tri-state area…(within a 3-4 hour drive)…they are reknowned for waitlisting high stats kids who haven’t visited if they live within a reasonable distance…</p>

<p>What is your major?</p>

<p>To clarify…are you saying that you are a “full pay” student and your parents will pay for wherever you go?</p>

<p>I think you’ll get into Pitt.</p>

<p>I am in Maryland/white/female.
Grandpa left me $$$$$$$$ :slight_smile: so we are full pay.</p>

<p>I guess I’m just freaking a little. I did visit Lehigh, Del, Pitt, Cornell, & Columbia. Haven’t visited U Rich, Northwestern, Mich, or Vanderbilt but will if I get accepted. </p>

<p>I want to major in IR/business maybe minor in studio art. I am all over the place! But seriously starting to freak out and panic that I won’t get in anywhere. I do love Pitt so hoping that is my safety. Cornell is my dream school! Very mad that they want diverse interests/blah/blah/blah but won’t take any art supplements!</p>

<p>I think you have a good list. You should have no problem getting into Pitt, and probably several others.</p>

<p>heart bleeds for OP…rant over</p>

<p>Thanks Rodney! I’ve only posted twice so forgive me for being a little stressed out! I guess I’ll feel better when I have 4,991 posts :slight_smile: </p>

<p>Thanks everyone else…Deep breaths. Sorry, I needed reassurance</p>
