I ran out of money during application and thus didn't send the secondaries to the schools that didn't accept plastico. I also had to turn down an interview at a school because I couldn't afford the plane tickets (and didn't realistically think I would attend because it was a fallback school and I already had secured two acceptances.) Key advice: stats aren't everything. Find some way to get your foot in the door and wow them with who you are in person rather than on paper. APPLY EARLY!!!!!!!
