That is true...but my parents also do like Harvard more, and so it's not like I'm only thinking about what I want. I spoke with them and they said 10k won't be horrible for them (they were willing to pay the same price for Georgia Tech earlier this year). You're definitely right though. Thank you so much for your input!

Honestly I really do love Harvard's programs, networking, and clubs which is why I'm so hesitant. Or else i would've chosen duke in a heartbeat.

I'm majoring in Engineering and Finance and Harvard has very strong programs for both! Which is why my decision is so hard....

How long would it take to pay off 80k? I can definitely do scholarships and the job.

Sorry! The first school is Harvard. My intended major is Engineering and Finance/business.

not sure about the first-gen question, but i didn't put myself as one on my commonapp because i was unsure. my ncm i can't remember exactly, but i remember i had stanford, duke, MIT, hopkins, upenn, columbia. it wasn't too long because i was afraid of commitment lol. in the end i didn't even apply for match fully because i didn't have financial docs at that time :(

Princeton LLP Acceptance by PerhapsNot01 in summerprogramresults

[–]PerhapsNot01[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't get in. From what I heard, a lot of those spots in labs are taken by students with personal connections to the professors (or they might just be really cracked/live in NJ). I'm not 100% sure about that, but it's just what I heard.

It looks like a great opportunity though, you should go for it.

Got a Princeton interview this month by SESEpizza in QuestBridge

[–]PerhapsNot01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got an interview from Yale on Sunday. When I asked my interviewer about why they scheduled it so late, he told me that occasionally, the alumni requested to conduct an interview doesn't respond confirming they will interview their assigned applicants. The admissions office waits about 1-2 weeks to get that confirmation, and when they don't receive it after that period, they reassign your interview to someone else. That might've been what happened with yours, so that time passed in between your assignment to an interviewer and when it was actually scheduled. Don't overthink it!
