<p>Thanks very much nd and sse, I appreciate it!</p>

<p>One thing I didn't mention:</p>

<p>My grandfather, his brother, and his uncle went to Notre Dame. My grandfather also belongs to an alumni donor society at ND, and has donated a substantial amount (100k+).</p>

<p>Notre Dame - Match given the donor relation thing
Brown - Reach because of the sheer number of qualified applicants they get, but you have a solid chance
Columbia - Reach, same as Brown
Georgetown (EA) - High match
Boston College (EA) - match
Northwestern - match
Rice - not sure</p>
