It's a college decision reveal folks! I got into Stanford, Harvard, Princeton, Columbia, UPenn, USC, WashU, Swarthmore, Rice, Santa Clara, CU Boulder, DU, CSU, and Colorado School of Mines... which college will I choose?
Applying to college was a super stressful process and I had no idea how it would turn out. I truly believe there is no "one way" to get accepted into ivy leagues and top schools but I think my stats like GPA, SAT, and ACT and extracurriculars may be helpful as guides for what are "needed" for top schools.
I don't have a good answer for "how to get into Harvard or Stanford" but I do know what they knew about me that resulted in my acceptance!
I also think my recommendations were a large deciding factor, as well as my media publications like news clips, articles, and my academic research publication.
I do realize I applied to a lot of schools as well but I was able to tackle that by starting my college applications (Common App) August 1st and finishing September 1st before senioritis set in.
It's also not just about what you put on your college applications but how you write your college essays and are able to show the admissions office WHO you are. Good college essay writing is SUPER important and can make or break an application.
