claqu: you have two best options, one is proceed as per dontno’s posts #1 & 3 above, and apply to same schools again. Which clearly worked for him.

There is also the “famous” story floating around CC of andison, who was rejected everywhere out of HS, despite stellar stats, did a gap year which he used highly productively, and then applied to colleges again. Despite his gap year accomplishments, schools that initially rejected him did so again. Which gives some validation to your concern. But on second go round he was accepted at a number of equally, and even more, prestigious colleges that he didn’t apply to the first time.

So which will be the case for you, who knows; these two data points do not point in the same direction. But perhaps you will find, once you get there, that actually you can accomplish your objectives while remaining at that state u, and save a lot of money in the process.
