<p>Applying to Tufts, GW, Binghamton, Stonybrook, Lehigh, Wesleyan, NYU, UPenn, Colgate, Vassar, St. John's, Univeristy of Rochester, BU</p>

<p>What are my chances??</p>

2

<p>Penn and GW will be reaches due to your test scores.</p>

<p>Everything else is match/ high match because of your exceptional EC. More leaderships could help.</p>

3

<p>wow sweet… wasn’t expecting GW to be a reach but i guess so… and haha penn was a definite expectation… anyways thanks!</p>

4

<p>do u think its a good idea to submit my resume under the additional information on the commonapp? I would be uploading the doc… or should I mail it?</p>

5

<p>jasonInNy is VERY wrong about GW, that’s a match for sure high match AT MOST, UPenn and NYU are both pretty high reaches (Penn more so than NYU), Tufts and Lehigh will be low reaches, the rest are matches or high matches…Your GPA is pretty solid, test scores are decent but strong EC’s, essays, and recs should cover that…still NYU and Penn will be tough but definitely apply</p>

6

<p>haha cool… and should i mail my resume or upload it under the common app as additional information?>></p>

7

<p>should i send my sats or act?? im sending both sat 2 and Maybe APs (havent sent those yet, dont know if i should)…</p>

8

<p>Wesleyan and Vassar are also reaches (moreso than NYU) because of your scores, which are low for them. They are more selective than GW and NYU. Your ECs will help, though.</p>

<p>I’d say UPenn, Wes, Vassar, Tufts are reaches. NYU maybe a lower reach, maybe a high match. The rest range between match and safety. Good list, and I wouldn’t be surprised if you get into at least a few of your reaches, especially if you have good essays and recs.</p>

9

<p>see above post lol… should i send my sat’s or act’s or both? and i sent my sat 2’s but not AP’s should i send those??</p>

10

<p>hey thanks for the chance
Penn and GW are reaches
everything is a match
good luck:)</p>

11

<p>Tufts-reach, GW-match, Binghamton-in, Stonybrook-in, Lehigh-match, Wesleyan-not familiar, NYU-reach, UPenn-impossible…, Colgate-not sure, Vassar-reach, St. John’s-in, Univeristy of Rochester-reach, BU-match</p>

12

<p>thanks for the chance!!! you have a great GPA and ec’s. I think NYU is a low match, same for GW. BU is a match for sure. Tufts, Wesleyan, and Colgate are more difficult to get into than NYU so they might be low reaches as well as Vassar. I’m not too sure about the rest of the schools on your list. Good luck and best wishes! :)</p>

13

<p>Reach (of varying degree) - Penn, NYU, Tufts, Colgate, Vassar, Wesleyan
Match - (of varying degree) - GWU, URochester, Lehigh, BU
Safety/Should be in - St. John’s, Binghamton, Stony Brook</p>

<p>You have a solid, well-balanced list of schools. Good luck!</p>

14

<p>bump please???</p>

15

<p>I think Penn is a high high reach because of test score
NYU - reach
Tufts - low reach (mostly if your essays/recs are good)
BU - match
dunno about the rest!

17

<p>good ECs but stats can pull you down
Tufts- match
GW-reach
Binghamton, Stonybrook, Lehigh, Wesleyan, NYU, Colgate, Vassar, St. John’s (depends on whether you’re applying for pharmacy or not), Univeristy of Rochester, = all matches
upenn=reach</p>

<p>by the way in my chance thread you mentioned about how you didn’t make it ED to Cornell. Which colleges did you apply within Cornell. thanks again for the input!</p>

18

<p>Your have good ECs, and APs. That balances out the SAT/ACT info. I would sumbit all of your scores and let the schools decide which ones are better. I would upload your resume at the end of the CommonApp if you feel that their form does not suffice. </p>

<p>Reaches - Penn, NYU, Tufts, Colgate, Vassar, Wesleyan
Matches - GWU, URochester, Lehigh, BU
Safeties - St. John’s, Binghamton, Stony Brook</p>

<p>Good Luck!</p>

19

<p>Wesleyan, Vassar, Tufts all, unless something has changed last year, have higher midrange scores than GW. I’d say nk9230 has it about right (agree about the scores, too).</p>

20

<p>I think that other than UPenn, Vassar and Wesleyan, you can get into all of the aformentioned schools as long as your esssays are solid.
