Wow, my dc is interested in Northwestern. We thought it would definitely be easier than UPenn. Any ties to Penn like legacy?


No. No ties to any of the schools.

Considering that both NU and Pomona have lower or equal acceptance rates to the forementioned , not sure why this would be surprising.

I have a rising senior and I'm interested in this type of information. If people could also add a sentence as to why you think your dc got in where he/she did but didn't elsewhere, that'd be really appreciated.
