I'm looking into seeing if I can actually get into U of M. Twin cities, but it only has a 57% acceptance rate..
i know, i'm stupid, but whatever. These are the colleges I can probably get into. |
It's completely worth it to apply to a TON of colleges. Trust me, it may seem like a hassle now, but you might end up getting into (or even getting a scholarship) from a school that you never though about attending before you applied. I never thought I would end up at either the undergrad or the law school that I'm at now, but I couldn't be happier with the way either turned out.
Something that way too many people overlook: If you're looking for a good value in education, there are TONS of great state schools that offer the same quality education as private schools for a fraction of the cost. You sound like you've got a good idea of where you're looking, so I'd definitely encourage you to consider tuition in your calculations, especially if you'll be taking out loans or paying for it yourself.
I don't know too much else about those schools, but I've heard amazing things about Minneapolis. It's supposedly one of the best places in the country to live, and will be growing rapidly in the future.
Do you know what in particular you want to study? That's a very important consideration.
If you go
here you can search for schools that will fit your profile.
Also, you might have already seen this, but
at UND's website, you can predict your chances for admission and for scholarships.
