    Congrats on the acceptances and especially on choosing ND! Hopefully you are able to have a relatively normal freshman year even with everything else going on.
    P.S. Just a tip, make sure you bring a fan (or several fans) if your dorm doesn't have AC. With the earlier start this year there are probably going to be some really warm days.

      @@machoperez5471 I’m not sure. The acceptances rates are so low at top schools that a lot of qualified applicants will get rejected no matter what. I guess each school is just looking for different attributes in their student body.

    Your parents are so supportive!!! And I see that you applied to many colleges under EA. Would you recommend going for EA over RD? And are you out of state for UNC? Would love to go there but out of state acceptances is toughhhh. Congrats!

    • @DrewBraaten
      @DrewBraaten  4 года назад

      EA and RD are pretty similar. The only difference is the school’s EA is before their RD deadline. While you have less time to write essays, you will hear back 1-3 months earlier than if you had applied RD. Not every school has EA from what I remember, but it is definitely nice to know hear back from schools early. So if you can, I’d try and apply EA where you can. Also, I’m not from NC.

    • @conniehwood
      @conniehwood 4 года назад +5

      From what I’ve heard there is a slight higher acceptance rate for many schools EA admissions mainly because they know the applicants are more competitive and also that the students care a little bit more. Also you get to hear earlier which is awesome!! Some schools however don’t have EA at all so be sure to look into it!

      It's crazy, in month span I switched my mind between WashU and Notre Dame about four times. It was a real tough choice. I visited WashU during quarantine and I was really impressed with the campus, definitely one of prettiest campuses I've seen. But you are right, you can't go wrong with either.
