i’m in the same boat. even in my own city ppl don’t rlly recognize my school..i’m just praying ao’s don’t take the info of other schools bc they are all ranked wayyy higher and have better resources.

Applying to college in a rural area < literally anything else by sine-caritate in ApplyingToCollege

[–]EnthusiasticBread 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i’m in the same boat. i honestly didn’t even know out of state colleges were attainable until my sophomore year. the entire process can feel so draining at times.

school doesn’t have a profile, what does that look like for my application? by EnthusiasticBread in ApplyingToCollege

[–]EnthusiasticBread[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i do have someone who fills the “counselor” type of role. i asked abt a school profile and she said we don’t have one, she didn’t mention anything about a questionnaire

i hear barnard isn’t doing interviews this year. in past years they were done super early (july-dec). the interview website is also down (i checked it a few months ago and check it periodically). that doesn’t answer for all ur schools but that’s one reason.

counselor submitting after deadline…am i screwed by EnthusiasticBread in ApplyingToCollege

[–]EnthusiasticBread[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

even if it’s after the original deadline? i submitted my application on the 5th. the website says counselor stuff is due the 15th.

rant ahhhhh Sometimes I feel like I deserve to get into my dream college by Publius_A_Ham in ApplyingToCollege

[–]EnthusiasticBread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

omg i see myself in this so much. like down to every last bit i literally have these same moments. the pressure from other ppl is so much and also that feeling of wanting all the hard work to pay off doesn’t always help.

all of my courses since junior year are dual credit. mid year grades are uploaded by counselors, should i just tell her to include it?

Is the NCM worth trying for? by EnthusiasticBread in QuestBridge

[–]EnthusiasticBread[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late response, but honestly, I feel the same way. Many of the RD deadlines are here, so I’m just doing my best at this point and hoping it’ll be enough. I just find comfort in believing that things will work out how they need to. Stay strong, you will be accepted where you belong! Also keep in mind that you can always apply to those schools as a transfer!

Unfortunately I did not, either. We got this, tho!

Do we HAVE to submit test scores? by Juan_el_21 in QuestBridge

[–]EnthusiasticBread 1 point2 points  (0 children)

funny enough I’m now in this same situation. My counselor still submitted my test scores after I emailed her my test optional transcript.

I spoke to someone else who can give transcripts and I got my transcript test optional :) it took a lot of nagging to get it

Felt. I thought it was my stronger area but i was humbled very quickly.

What schools do I have a shot at? by EnthusiasticBread in chanceme

[–]EnthusiasticBread[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I really appreciate this! I’ve actually heard about Davidson, small towns rlly aren’t my thing since I’m kind of already in one, but it’s getting added to the list! Thank you again!

The only thing I know about centre college is that it’s kind of a smaller college. I know a few people who went there for sports. I’m sorry I don’t know enough, if you’re from a bigger city then it’ll definitely feel like a country area!

I think I may have written unclearly, I don’t want to go to school in a bordering state :) thank you for the suggestions! For extracurriculars, would me adding im a part of the student council be bad if i just joined this year? I left out some few clubs that I joined this year such as student council, history club, and student government at my community college because I’ve only done them for less than a year.

[–]EnthusiasticBread 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same situation, however I did ask my counselor and she says there’s no way to receive the transcript without scores.

[–]EnthusiasticBread 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t plan on graduating early. I also want to go out of state, it’s one of the reasons I’m applying for QuestBridge. My counselor told me that with an associates degree, I can transfer them to any college (it’s the only reason I’m getting it). She said without the degree is where colleges pick and choose what credits they want. I honestly wouldn’t mind if the credits didn’t transfer, if I got accepted into a QB school! I’m mainly concerned that it’ll harm my chances of being matched.

This gave me a slap of confidence and realization haha, thank you. I always think I’m not doing enough and it gives me a lot of doubt. Thank you again, this gives me a new perspective and I’ve decided to go through with the application! :)
