<p>Might want to put this in the “chance me” forum. Where do you live? If you’re out of state for the University of Washington, then it might be a bit of a reach. I think the average GPA of an out-of-state student is 3.8, and the SAT average is higher as well. If you’re in-state, I think you’re fine.</p>
<p>Dunno what else, but I think ‘NYU’ is in the reach category as well.</p>
<p>If you need financial aid and you can’t get into a school that’s hemorrhaging money, don’t waste your money on a small liberal arts school. Go to a good state school and worry about your graduate degree.</p>
