I only applied to Yale Early Action, which means it is not binding. I found out Dec. 15th. But, I was still clueless as to what school I wanted to go to. So, I also applied to a bunch of other places regular decision. I found at early from Swarthmore because I was a finalist for some scholarship at the school, so I had to go interview again, but I ended up being an alternate for the scholarship. They still accepted all the finalists (I was like yes!, thank you for softening the blow of alternate, oh gods of college admissions =))

In order to decide, I guess I’ll just make a bunch of Xcel spread sheets. I’ll consider all factors - weather, strength of engineering school, location, housing, size!
It will be great and totally nerdy, but maybe it will calmly help me make a rational decision!
Hah. Still clueless. And perhaps too lazy to make spreadsheets… We’ll see.
