Just wondering if I should drop another $450.00 on some additional schools, any advice will be helpful!
Non-Traditional Applicant- BA- Finance- I'm 30yrs old.
I started my own Company when I was 24, and have been running it for 6 years- (Self made if your wondering, my parents are broke lol)
CA Resident
OGPA: 3.41
SGPA:3.80
BCP: 4.0
19AA /19TS / 22PAT Didn't do so hot I know
165 hours Dent Shadowing

Already Applied to:
UCSF
Western
LEECOM
NOVA
Louisville
Maryland
UMICH
UDMercy
MINN (which I regret the secondary is so annoying)
Creighton
UNLV
Rutgers
BUFF
PITT
Temple
Roseman
VCU
Marquette

Thinking about applying too:
Midwest AZ
Midwest IL
OSU

Which will cost $450.00, should I? or I am safe with the above list, or do you recommend any other OOS schools that I didnt list... Thanks in advance

More like $450+ when you consider supplemental fees; however, if it gives you peace of mind then apply. I applied to 24 schools this year rather than 3 last cycle. I don't know much about the 'safeness' as I've yet to experience the OOS this time around.
 
Yeah true probably going to be more like $700-$800... Thanks
 
I honestly think you're fine, although you are looking at someone who only applied to 6 schools and my scores weren't above average or anything. When I think about it, that was very risky of me to do haha. If it puts your mind at ease, maybe apply to a couple more schools, but not all of the ones you were thinking about. Because you still need to spend money on traveling to get to your interviews and whatnot. Do more research on which ones to pick. I know that there was a ton of California residents that got interviews at MWU-IL, and I'm sure a good amount of them got in.

If you can afford it, it doesn't hurt to apply
 
Thanks... Yeah I think I'm going to apply to a couple more just in case, I'm older so I'm not trying to not get in this cycle.. Time is important. Also what's do you think of OSU? OOS friendly or not really...
 
Apply to Case. They are great with non-trads.

Also... Are your science classes too old for the schools that have a limit on how long ago you could have taken them?
 
Ok cool will do....No I took my science classes in the past two years at a University. Only thing that is old are my English classes which schools don't really care about too much...
