So excited!!!! Applying to UPenn this cycle....debating about applying to more, but honestly Penn is my #1 choice.
It is always a good idea to apply to more than 1 school as a backup in case you don't get into your #1 school. That way, if something happens, you did not waste a whole application cycle.
With the exception being you wouldn't attend the other school (backup) if that were the only one you were accepted to. Seriously, this is for everyone, don't waste the time, effort, and money applying to schools that you would not 100% attend if they were the only school to offer you an acceptance.
