duke
university of north carolina
yale

okay my main question is, with all of this is- if i were to apply to ivy league schools, stanford, university of north carolina, duke, georgetown, exc., and i got in (i know this is not guaranteed or even very likely- i’m just saying if), do you think i would be able to get enough money/scholarships to bring down these prices to a level semi-comparable to instate tuition of university of illinois? (family income about 100,000) this may be a stupid question, i don’t really know.

I know my activities and interests are pretty random and they don’t really show passion for one area. That’s because I’m really not sure what I want to do because I have such a wide range of interests. However, I have been involved with almost all of these activities for quite sometime and genuinley enjoy all of them- they aren’t just some random things I picked up so I could throw it on my applications.
