<p>I want to apply to a lot of schools, but the fees are crazy. Is asking for fee waivers bad? I qualify for fee waivers, but someone told me that it looks bad or isn’t good to ask?</p>

Bard
Middlebury
Sarah Larwence
Kenyon
Wesleyan
Lewis and Clark

University of Iowa as an extreme safety
Oberlin</p>
<p>My list only looks that strong because I can’t think of many “match” schools. Notice also that I didn’t put a lot of the top schools on my “Where I’d Apply Right Now” section, because I probably can’t get in. :D</p>
<p>Oo… My list is:</p>
<p>American
Furman
Appalachian
USC (Carolina)
Wofford
Converse (UGH!)- I’m going to visit in July
CofC</p>
<p>Kind of small right now… But… I’m still looking.</p>
<p>heres my list:</p>
<p>Brown
Columbia
Princeton
Dartmouth
Northwestern
U Chicago

None. Uh-oh. :D</p>
<p>I’m unsure about putting MIT on the list. I love the school, and I love brain & cog sci, but I don’t know if it has strong enough humanities. :/</p>
<p>The Chances forum is full of silliness. I’m staying far, far away.</p>
<p>This is an tentative list, and I change my mind every few weeks, so… out of the gazillions of colleges out there, these are the ones I haven’t crossed off yet. Really need to work on the matches/safety category.
**= extremely iffy on them
