I think you have a good chance for all of those schools. The ivies are like the lottery but based off of what you presented you are most likely getting into GW and Babson. Harvard and Columbia I think would be stretch with Cornell, Northwestern and USC most likely waitlists.

You should get into Babson and GW and I would think you could get into NYU ED2 but your SAT is a bit low and Idk about your math classes of course. So long as you’re taking BC Calc or Multivariable Calc (since most northeastern prep schools offer those) then NYU should smile upon your math grades. NYU is finance intensive so math is a big component to them especially since your low math score on the SAT may raise some flags but with your hooks and extracurriculars admittance should really only lie on academic performance.
