You have an impressive record. Good for you! I think it will be appreciated that you went the the Lehigh Engineering Summer Program. Have you visited the campus since then to interview with an admissions officer or attended a perspective student talk on campus? Lots of very talented students, like yourself, don’t get accepted each year and I think demonstrated interest can be a great factor. Best of luck to you!
