How Many Schools

Applying to College
1

<p>Okay, here’s a question…how many schools are you (or your child) applying to? Is it possible to apply to too many? What if you’re applying to numerous Ivys (not because of the prestige necessasarily, but because you genuinely like them), then is it okay to apply to more than 15? Just curious.</p>

<p>If money and time are not factors, not really. And 15+ isn’t uncommon among members of this forum (see [here[/url</a>] and the threads below), although I think it’s insane. Some related threads:</p>
