tiny-bill's wisdom

Apply early if possible. I wish I had, so that my aid negotiation/deposit/withdrawal timeline wasn’t so fucked. At this rate, going to have to commit to NYU before I get Columbia offer, which could’ve been higher, or at least the same, which would let me more meaningfully consider the school.

Look up the Kira interview questions before you do them and plan out an answer. I did the Berkeley one without knowing what questions they would ask, and I think that made my response much more disjointed/inarticulate than it had to be.

While I didn’t phone in any of my essays, I did want to stay in New York, and the fact that I was most enthusiastic about NYU and Columbia probably came through in my essays. I think that this is quite likely the main reason I got As in those schools but WLed/rejected just about everywhere else. Seems like the adcomms can tell. But who knows.
