<p>Hi guys, as the college application season starts approaching, I have become increasingly worried that I don't have a garauteed safety school. I'm planning on applying to Harvard, UPenn, Columbia, Georgetown, Johns Hopkins, George Washington, Notre Dame, American University, and Tufts. I think I want to major in International Relations or Economics, or both.<br>
Stats:
Male
Half Filipino (is this considered Asian?) Half White
GPA: 4.4 W 3.84 UW-Top 5% of class
SAT:2190 (800M 730CR 660W)
Just took SAT II for US and MATH II (I'm guessing 700+ for US but I felt bad about Math II)
Activities: FBLA (Public Relations Manager), Boy Scouts (Eagle Scout, Junior Assistant Scoutmaster), Mock Trial, Track & Cross Country, Rugby Club, Altar Server at my Church, Special Olympics Swim Team Volunteer, Three time National History Day State Competitor (3rd place this year), National Honors Society, I'm a busser at restaurant, and I am just starting to volunteer at my local hospital.<br>
This summer I'm doing Economics for Leaders at Duke, and the Leadership Seminar at Notre Dame. By the end of high school I'll have taken 10 APs (6 senior year).
Am I considered first generation American if my mother was born in the Philippines but my dad was born in America?
No hooks. </p>
<p>I know that the ivies are reaches, but I just want someone to tell me if the any of the colleges I'm applying to are matches/safeties. Also, is anyone has any other recommendations for colleges to consider for International Relations, that would be great. Thanks in advance for any advice/replies. </p>
