Stanford University, officially Leland Stanford Junior University, is a private research university in Stanford, California, and one of the world's most prestigious institutions.
Stanford was founded in 1885 by Leland Stanford, former Governor of and U.S. Senator from California and leading railroad tycoon, and his wife, Jane Lathrop Stanford, in memory of their only child, Leland Stanford, Jr., who had died of typhoid fever at age 15 the previous year. Stanford admitted its first students on October 1, 1891 as a coeducational and non-denominational institution. Tuition was free until 1920. The university struggled financially after Leland Stanford's 1893 death and again after much of the campus was damaged by the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. Following World War II, Provost Frederick Terman supported faculty and graduates' entrepreneurialism to build self-sufficient local industry in what would later be known as Silicon Valley. By 1970, Stanford was home to a linear accelerator, and was one of the original four ARPANET nodes (precursor to the Internet).

Subscribe to be notified when I share my accepted Stanford essays :) MY STATS: I applied Regular Decision, not Early Action SAT: 2130 | ACT: 30 | GPA: 4.0 SAT II: 650 USH and 720 BIO (my stats suck, I know.) I just wanted to share the stuff that I wish I knew before I started the process a year ago! These are my tips and advice to get into Stanford, Ivies, and other top schools especially when you don't have the cure for cancer, the last name Obama, or any Nobel Peace Prizes (yet). The one thing I hate the most is the "college prep/admissions" industry because not everyone can afford essay readers, private counselors, or SAT tutors (I know I couldn't). So this is my little way of helping out other high schoolers navigate the process on their own and get into some amazing schools....

Yale University is a private Ivy League research university in New Haven, Connecticut. Founded in 1701 as the "Collegiate School" by a group of Congregationalist ministers and chartered by the Colony of Connecticut, the university is the third-oldest institution of higher education in the United States. In 1718, the school was renamed "Yale College" in recognition of a gift from Elihu Yale, a governor of the British East India Company. Established to train Connecticut ministers in theology and sacred languages, by 1777 the school's curriculum began to incorporate humanities and sciences. During the 19th century Yale gradually incorporated graduate and professional instruction, awarding the first Ph.D. in the United States in 1861 and organizing as a university in 1887.[6] Please visit more...

Dearheart
Take a look at you
I know how it feels
Branches full of fruit
Life streaks
And surges all in green
The bounty of the rain
The bounty of the spring
Dearheart
You cant keep them all
I wait with eyes closed
Ill lighten your load
Truth hurts
Remember this:
We are pooling our faith
(You said it)
Asking for my basketful
Shake loose
All your garnet jewels
Whatever sustains me
Gifts and pampers you
Trees drop
Plums in my open mouth
I wait with eyes closed
Paradise my own
Truth hurts
Hold onto this:
We are pooling our faith
(You said it)
Juice bursts
Don't let it drip
We are pooling our faith
