I'm heavily prioritizing US-based institutions. The current plan is to apply Early Decision for Brown or Princeton. The rest of the options are some other colleges and universities I've considered applying for during the Regular Decision. If you think I should consider some place that isn't on the list that would fit my profile, please add it as an option (and please add a comment on why I should consider it!).
