<p>I, as many others, would appreciate any input on my chances at colleges I've already applied to, and possibly suggestions on other schools that may be good for me.</p>
<p>Small, rural school in Ohio(125 grad class)
White, Caucasian male
I've taken the most "challenging" courses we offer here, but I really haven't been challenged and therefore haven't really been motivated to do work.
AP Gov, History, Calc
3.4 gpa
Comp 101/102
Took the ACT once-got a 32
4 years of football
4 years of concert trombone
Less than 30k household income
Planning on becoming a business(undecided specifically) major</p>
<p>As of now I've applied to: Akron U, Ashland U, Binghamton, William & Mary, Northeastern, Boston College, Miami(Ohio) U. of Virginia. Please chance me on these colleges and/or offer advice on other schools? It'd be much appreciated.</p>
<p>I don’t know how your financial need will impact your chances; especially for out-of-state public schools, financial need will likely hurt your chances. You should contact those schools directly to find out their financial aid policies and how they view financial need in terms of admissions.</p>
<p>Otherwise:</p>
<p>Akron U – never heard of
Ashland U – never heard of
Binghamton – only vaguely familiar, would guess safety/match based on 32 ACT
William & Mary – reach (out of state public)
Northeastern – safety/match
Boston College – low reach
Miami(Ohio) – only vaguely familiar, would guess safety based on 32 ACT
U. of Virginia – reach (out of state public)</p>
<p>Akron/Ashland are just schools near me that alot of students attending my HS end up going to. Thanks for the input, any other schools I should consider?</p>
