<p>I would have liked to apply to McGill, St. Andrews, and the University of Iceland, in terms of international schools. Awww such an effort.</p>
<p>Just wanted to wish everyone on the Yale board Good Luck! from the Penn board:)</p>
<p>Goldfish, did you really apply to 25 schools?</p>
<p>Yale
Columbia
Princeton
Duke
UPenn
NYU
Macalaster
McGill</p>
<p>Goldfish, why so many?</p>
<p>Yeesh! So many schools!
I’m applying to:
Yale
Pomona
Swarthmore
George Washington
Indiana University</p>
<p>And Harvard if I get rejected from Yale EA. :)</p>
<p>Hey Gorbachev- if we don’t see each other at Yale, we might at IU or Harvard! And if I have a nervous breakdown before senior year ends, Pomona is really close to my home :)</p>
<p>Do you think I should apply to Harvard? Would I have any chance RD?</p>
<p>By the way, have you been to Pomona? Is it nice? I hear its nice.</p>
<p>i don’t like where this thread is going.</p>
<p>the next 1.5 months should be a time to worry ourselves sick over yale, not entertain other options. :)</p>
<p>Hello, my fellow Yalie hopefuls!</p>
<p>Apparently I’ve missed the introductions/obsessive calculus rants/whatnot. I’d write one myself, but my MUN position paper is due tomorrow and, uh, it hasn’t exactly been started yet.</p>
<p>Anyway, is anyone else having an extremely difficult time not associating anything and everything with Yale? Even when there’s no logical connection in the first place? I mean, I bought myself a sweater last night after thinking, “Oh, I can totally see myself sprawled out in Ezra Stiles with this on.” I then walked to my car, gave myself a mental forehead-slap for that, and continued to lust over that image with my UPenn-applying buddy.</p>
<p>Ack, mid-December-- why must you be so far away?</p>
<p>Looks like we’re all eyeing similar schools if that wicked “DEFERRED/DENIED” letter somehow finds its way into our mail in December.</p>
<p>My list:
Georgetown
George Washington
UPenn
Brown
Cornell
Columbia
Harvard (for kicks and giggles)</p>
<p>I’m not seeing too many people listing safeties. Is that on purpose or are most of you that confident.</p>
<p>Oops. My safety: U of Pittsburgh.</p>
<p>Almost forgot it.</p>
<p>I wonder if anyone else has run into this dilemma:</p>
<p>assuming a best case scenario, and you get into Yale, how exactly do you justify paying that much money for undergrad? It doesn’t seem like anyone here has to worry about that stuff. I’m applying to Yale, and really hope I get in, but as my parents won’t qualify for finaid, I really don’t know if I’d be comfortable putting them in that much debt. </p>
<p>U-M is my safety, and I decided that if they gave me $20,000 or more in scholarships, I’d definitely go there (I’m a TASP alumnus, so I have a good shot). Do you think this is overly practical? U-M is my 2nd choice, and I want to major in poli/sci, so I can’t really go wrong I guess.</p>
<p>Gorbachev: Pomona is a beautiful campus. The city is the ugliest configuration of dirty block and wood imaginable. I’m serious. Entering the Claremont Colleges is like ‘junkyardjunkyardjunkyardjunkyard–ooh, a nice little campus haven–junkyardjunkyardjunkyard’. And it’s right by Claremont McKenna; empty beer bottles littered everywhere [shudder]. I wanted to apply to Scripps, but there’s no way I can spend four years of my life in smog and grime. It’s an insult to California. If you want to come here, visit my home town :)</p>
<p>audiophile I am in the same situation. I would never put my parents in that much. Epsecially considering I am planning on going to Medical school afterwards (where I know I will have to go into debt). In the end my parents could get the money together but I’m not sure whether I would choose Yale and being a dirt poor student or anotehr school, like Emory, and having a full ride. Decisions, decisions…</p>
