<p>Last attempt - If you aren’t actually hoping to go and if you are really just hoping to travel and if you can travel elsewhere for less and if you want your essay to be about a trip, then why not just go on your less expensive trip. Your “trip” to Harvard is not going to provide you a better essay topic than any other experience in your life. So the only reason to go is simply because you want to go and if you actually want to go then just do it. That is completely up to you and your parents.</p>
