What are my chances at NYU, Vanderbilt, Penn State, American University,U Virginia and Case Western. I wanna do Business or International Affairs. I came from Cuba just 5 years ago so I'll mention that in my essay. I also have 4 years of work experience. Since before freshman year. Nyu is my number one option</p>
<p>What’s your ethnicity?</p>
<p>Hispanic. I came from cuba 5 years ago</p>
<p>I’m also 36% Asian. I don’t know how this will affect my chances tho. Hopefully they only consider the Mexican</p>
<p>I talked about how I came from Cuba in my essay tho</p>
<p>Looks like you have two different accounts so you may be kicked out of this community for that.
Vanderbilt, American and UVA = matches (50/50)
Penn State: unlikely to be affordable unless your parents have $45,000/year
Why case Western for International Affairs?
You should apply to Tufts, Georgetown, GWU, too, plus UF or FSU of course.</p>
<p>It’s my same account. My stats just changed. And because business is also an option. As for Georgetown and Tufts I didn’t feel I had a chance with my stats.</p>
<p>I think you have a shot (as a reach, of course) at some of these top IR schools like Tufts or Williams because your profile is interesting, especially for the LACs and New England schools - you have a lot of hooks, dual enrollment, great weighted GPA, great EC’s. It’s worth a try as long as you remember odds are low even if not impossible. “Reachable reaches”
