LOVE THIS! Need way more time. I typed super quickly and ran out of time!

Only other comment is that it would help if the abbreviations you use are consistent. For example, UCLA and UVA work, but UNC does not. Thanks!

Thanks! I forgot to change the time from the default, it's fixed now. I also added a bunch of abbreviations.

Missing a lot of common abbreviations/names for schools, I missed Wisconsin because none of "Wisconsin", "UW Madison", and "University of Wisconsin" were accepted.

RPI wasn't accepted for Rochester Polytecnic, "Illinois" wasn't accepted for UIUC, "Indiana" and "IU" weren't accepted for Indiana University, "UMass" wasn't accepted for UMass, "Florida St" wasn't for Florida State, "Michigan" wasn't for Michigan, "Michigan St" wasn't for Michigan St, etc.
