High school class of 2016

I’m applying to reaches and safeties EA.
1 state school, 1 safety, 3 reaches

I don’t get why people don’t count state schools in their safety, match, reach counts.

@XoXdreamerXoX

You have until 11:59pm ET tomorrow night.

Source: I just ordered score reports and it says so in the confirmation email.

My school keeps majorly messing up my transcript, so I just sent my principal an email about it. But I’m sorta freaking about because we’re on break until the 21st, so there’s no one in school to get things fixed AND I’m applying to 2 universities ( 1 private, 1 public) ED/EA.

Oh, and elections are coming up on Oct. 25th and everyone is expecting there to be riots - our school has a contingency plan in case it’s shut down that week. But if everything is shut down, then there probably won’t be internet, which means I need to submit my apps before the 25th, which means that I need to have my transcript and supplements and stuff ready to go by then.

TL;DR - I’m so screwed for my ED/EA college applications.

Are you an international student?@QuirkyClarkie

Did my first college tours today!

Cool. A little late in the game but better late than never. @TheAtlantic

Doing my second college tour this Sunday. Both have been fully paid for by the schools. I could never pay the transportation costs to do visits otherwise.

@IBGuy101
if you’re not interested in the private colleges, I wouldn’t apply… I think it would be better to focus more on the UC essays/applications if you want to go there instead :slight_smile:

Right @IBGuy101 Don’t apply to anywhere where you can’t see yourself. That includes safeties.

Senior pictures are actually pretty.
I usually look awful in school pictures.

@readingclaygirl Sorta. I’m American, but I’m living overseas at the moment (in East Africa). What about you?

36 ACT Writing…and yet my essays all sound like crap. Lovely B-)

My picture from last year was really good so inevitably my senior pictures were disappointing haha oops

Senior class meeting tomorrow and I have to speak in front of 800 seniors as a senior class officer. Nervous.

I want to finally upload my common app essay and basically just never read it again. So far I’ve only done about two supps. How often do you guys plan on reusing essays or reshaping them for the prompt? Applying to a lot of schools is mentally exhausting.

If I change my mind and decide not to apply to a school EA because I know I can’t reach the deadline, when is the latest I can change this on common app? I have an October 15th deadline and it seems like my parents aren’t in the mood to give me the information I need and it all just feels like an absolute headache.

Best of luck @XoXdreamerXoX School is the least of my worries this next week as I have major surgery tomorrow.

Anyone here catch any of the debates so far?

@XoXdreamerXoX Good luck!
@readingclaygirl Good luck. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
