LOL @StanfordAI2019!
Another thing to consider: can the missing criteria be made up in other ways? For example: if there’s not enough dance in the MT program, ask if you can take additional dance classes from the dance department, perhaps as electives. Or take additional dance classes at home during the summer. So something like that might not be a dealbreaker.
But if you’re a city kid and want to be in a big city for college, and there’s a college in a tiny rural town far from anything, THAT might be a dealbreaker. Or if you’re from Florida and hate cold weather, a school in a cold area that gets two feet of snow every year might be a dealbreaker. There’s no way to make a rural area city-ish, and no way to make a cold climate warm.
You have to figure out a) which criteria are MOST important to you and which you can live without, and b) which missing criteria can be made up in other ways and which can’t.
