<p>Hey, I’m kinda late finishing my apps due to some problems. What are some good schools with a late-ish deadline I could apply to if I don’t need any financial aid? Preferably no TOEFL required either (waste of time, that test!)… I have a 1970 SAT (660M, 610CR, 700W)… Currently applying to Purdue, UT Austin and Wisconsin-Madison.</p>

<p>You’re in at Purdue.</p>

<p>Yeah, but I’m not a big fan of Indiana :P</p>

<p>Also does this apply to me? I’m an Indian and was schooled completely in English.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>So I can rush my application to Oberlin without waiting for my TOEFL scores :)</p>

<p>How is Penn State University in general?</p>

<p>Thanks…</p>

<p>Penn State University Park: Doubtlessly a huge party school and said to be not very rigorous academically.
Definitely a fun place to be :D</p>

<p>Ooh… sad… forget it then… thanks… I wish I had started applying a bit earlier atleast :(</p>

<p>Hmm… I can rush an application to UIUC too…</p>

<p>Lol I can’t edit the earlier post after 20 mins…</p>

<p>I have been schooled completely in English since like kindergarten so is it still necessary for me to take the TOEFL? I have a 610 CR score. I e-mailed the UT Austin admissions office a couple of days back after this but haven’t received a reply yet. I’ll be really glad if I don’t have to take that silly test and waste $150.</p>

<p>Can’t find anything to support this on the Wisconsin-Madison website. I guess I’ll email them asap then and hope they waive it off.</p>

<p>don’t worry most public univ. are very liberal with their toefl rules and a above 600 cr qualifies you for most of them.</p>

8

<p>Ok cool, thanks. I’m just worried coz I’m already applying quite late and don’t wanna have any more problems.</p>

9

<p>USC has January 10 and you should have a decent shot, based on ur SAT scores.</p>

10

<p>Yeah, I was looking at USC too. I guess I’ll be applying to USC along with the other 3 asap. I just hope I get some clarification about TOEFL soon from UT and Wisconsin coz I’ll have to register soon for the 5th Jan test.</p>

<p>Hey guys hows Ohio State University? It’s listed as a Public Ivy :S and has a feb 1st deadline. I’ve heard its not very rigorous and selective though.</p>

<p>Maybe investing $40 might be a good idea: <a href=“http://www”>www</a>. collegepro wler .com</p>

<p>You could read up on “inside” information about academics, the social life etc at Ohio State, Penn State, Purdue, UT Austin, Wisconsin-Madison and many other colleges and universities.</p>
