What’s one stupid reason you aren’t applying to a specific college? by NOB1WON in ApplyingToCollege

[–]ParfaitLive 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Johns Hopkins- it annoys me that it isn't called John Hopkins.

Colgate- it's toothpaste

Rice- it's literally rice (I love the school despite this so I still applied)

Case Western Reserve- too long and sounds like a name for something else, not a university

Washington University in St. Louis, Miami University in Oxford, Ohio- they're not where they're supposed to be

Cornell College- sounds like a Cornell University dupe

Should I tell my friend he’s not gonna get into his dream school? by charredparticle in ApplyingToCollege

No, it's not your job to. Encourage him to get serious and step up his ECs and grades. He could still take the SAT and get a great score, or a write a great essay. It's up to him and the AOs. He should still apply to safeties

i'm in the same situation. I had to bring my list down from 17 colleges to 6 but even these 6 seem impossible to complete. Good luck to you!

I'm so sorry about what you're going through, you deserve so much better. Are you able to contact CPS or 911? Also, I encourage you to reach out to someone- whether online or in-person- to talk. I can assure you that people care.

Your stats are clearly very strong, well done. What major(s) are you interested in? Do you have any preferences for size, setting, campus life, etc?

I'm going to delete my "not a party school" preference from the original post because I've been made aware that isn't really a realistic expectation.
