<p>Anyone? Does anyone chance a thread that isn’t applying to HYP like every other thread on here???</p>

<p>I’m not sure about many of the schools on your list but I feel like Northeastern, Penn State and Ohio State are all solid matches for you.</p>

<p>And generally, people chance those threads because it is an easy response: “reach” for all of them. Ha.</p>

<p>Northeastern Will be a reach.</p>

<p>I’ll chance you because your stats are close to DS’s.</p>

<p>University of Illinois- Urbana/Champaign --high match/low reach
Kent State–safety
Penn State–high match
Northeastern–high match (may be helped by geography, might not hurt to try to be recruited for lacrosse [Northeastern</a> Men?s Lacrosse :: Recruits](<a href=“http://www.menslacrosse.neu.edu/contact/recruits]Northeastern”>http://www.menslacrosse.neu.edu/contact/recruits))
University of Wisconsin- Milwaukee–match
Ohio State–match
Iowa State–don’t know</p>

<p>Iowa- safety, proably qualify for auto admit based on your stats.
U of I-UC- high reach, this school is rather difficult to get into. but in state status will help a lot.
Ohio state is a match.
Milwaukee is a match/safety
Penn state…sorry not sure
Kent state- safety
Northeastern- slight reach but great chance.</p>

<p>I think based on what you tell us you’ve got a pretty good list of schools, maybe even try for a bigger reach if you want. like UW-Madison.
by the looks of it, its only your cumulative that may bring you down if any. But you’ve got a solid list of schools in my opinion.
Chance back
