Any schools that I should add/remove? I know there's a single primary fee for all TX schools, but I don't want to waste money on secondary app fees for too many schools. Is that a good idea or should I apply everywhere in TX to be safe?
Also, please suggest schools in the northeast that are generous with need-based aid and I have a realistic chance at.
