<p>I applied to 10. 3 NJ state schools, U Del, American, Northeastern, BU, Columbia, Barnard and NYU. Was accepted to except Columbia and Barnard. Going to NYU.</p>
<p>Got merit scholarships to all.</p>
<p>I applied to 9 uni
1-safety, 5-matches, 3 super reaches (MIT, Princeton, Stanford)
got in 5 uni- the safety, 3 matches and 1 super reach (stanford)
waitlisted by the other 2 matches and rejected by MIT and Princeton
Going to attend stanford next fall.</p>
<p>D applied to 10, she was trying to find a good D3 program for her sport and a fine academic institution.</p>
<p>4 reaches - WL (2 Ivies and 2 highly selective LAC)
4 mathces - admits
2 safeties - admits with unexpected merit money</p>
<p>We spent a lot of time visiting schools and paring down the list to 10, in part out of respect for the guidance department! In retrospect that probably was not necessary and I would have thrown in a few others that offered merit money but were matches.</p>
<p>For D2, who has her heart set on one school, I will urge her to apply ED and to have her list of RD ready to go.</p>
