Colleges!

I got into UGA I am so amazingly happy I can't even describe it!
I also got into Alabama but I don't think I'm going there.
Where have all you seniors applied to/gotten in?

I only applied to three places, and got into all of them. Dalhousie, St. Thomas, and the school I decided to go to, the University of King's College. If anyone is unsure as to what you want to do, I'd greatly recommend looking into King's and taking the Foundation Year Program. It's really sweet.
/Shameless plug

That's awesome, congrats in getting in! I'm waiting for my confirmation letters, which come in late January. I only applied to 2 places, I'm really hoping for University of Auckland (65th in the world), and if I don't get in there, it's a big drop down to Massey University (283rd in the world), so fingers crossed!

That list is a joke.

what makes you say that?

Seems pretty accurate from previous years.

I suppose you could justify the high ranking of such American public universities as Michigan and Minnesota because of an abundance of resources, but WUSTL going from 161 to 60 in one year? That shows they don't really know what they're doing.

i would say the times does have an abundance of resources as you put it

It's impossible to make such a list to much accuracy.

Applied for the Uc's colleges, don't know where I'm going till March.

It is probably much more accurate than you think
Obviously you have to pick your college/university on its performance in the subject you want to take but still

They are done purely on surveys of professors and experts in each academic area. The school has grown tremendously their program in the past year with their implementation of an engineering and math program.

ive applied to like 10 schools. so far ive gotten into 2 schools which were my top choices, but i might just go to community college for a year or 2 of gen eds. because the one i want to go to if i do that has an xc team so i can do that and figure out what i want to do.

UC Santa Cruz
UC San Diedo
UC Los Angeles
UC Berkeley
CSU Sacramento
Cal Poly
Stanford
University of Washington
New York University
Embry-Riddle Daytona Beach

I could run at 3 of these schools, but I don't really care about running in college

Same here..of course, since their primary care medical program is excellent.

Maybe the University of California, (But I'd rather poke my eye out before living in California =/)
Gonzaga
OR
Colorado State university.

No running in college, I think the UW girls would just laugh at me too..haha

I have concluded that the same will go for me unless I go under 4:30 and the schools I get into want me.

id like to go to cornell when im older. im good at school and okay at running (for my age). problem is where i live is underrated academically

I'm going to University of Rochester, I know that already.
even though I'm only a sophomore haha

but it's my dream school. It's pretty good, 119 according to that list, they have my major (pre-med), my backup majors in case I change my mind (bio, Russian), and division III track!!!

I must go thereee.

Thats why I want to go to UW, I looove Seattle and its whole atmosphere. It makes me happy when i'm there

my dream would be NYU. i love the city, particularly soho. i was just there the other day. one of my friends from the track team was just recruited even though its DIII. i think i could get her times by next year. it may still be out of reach to go there though. hah she said she'd try to talk me up to the coach.
