<p>In the United Kingdom, students are only allowed to apply to 5 Universities/Colleges and if they wish to be considered for Oxbridge can only apply to one or the other, none of this applying to 10, 15.<br>
I just heard one of my DS14 HS students applied to 47 colleges, crazy!, imagine the number of essays for her, she got accepted to 5 colleges! She didn’t apply to Swarthmore. </p>
