What school should i apply early descision to.
What school should i try to ed? Cost it not an issue as long as the school is good. I'll be 150k yo 200k in debt when i graduate but with finance salaries being six figures your first year out of college and the growth in compensation the debt should be worth it i think. Any opinions on that?
I'm looking for a balance between admission chances and school prestige.
Here are the ones that i'm looking at: Washu olin Boston college Carnegie mellon Upenn Nyu

How could people give you advice if they don’t know what your grades are
My bad updated it
Editing since you added stats - I don't think you have any shot at HYPSW. Cornell maybe.
Duke, NYU Stern, UVA for realistic ED chances. Honorable mentions for Georgetown and UMich which are EA only.
My bad updated it
SUNY Binghamton
Cornell places in BB IB fine. You are not Wharton material mate
Yeah cornelss gr8 ofc i was j giving an example
Weak EC relative to other ivy contenders. IRRC there are a few sub-reddits dedicated to admission and admission results. A lot of people with amazing ECs get rejected from all of the ivies.
Try for EA schools like Notre Dame or Georgetown. If I remember correctly Boston College is by far the easiest to get in with a 41% acceptance rate for Early Decision last year, but I personally would never settle for a semi target school like that when there are so many better options available (e.g. literally all the schools you listed besides Emory)
Nvm, if you're going to be 150k-200k in debt then Boston College and Emory are absolutely not worth that price (maybe even WashU)
