Accepted so far into University of South Florida!

Colleges I’m Applying to!
University of Florida, Florida State University, Fordham University, NYU, Boston College, UNC Chapel Hill, and my dream school Georgetown University (Brother attended and One of my teacher rec letters is from an alumni)

Please give me a chance for the schools friends

Your application looks pretty solid. I’m not trying to be racist or anything but your race will definitely help you along the way. I also live in Florida and it is often the minority students that end up getting accepted to top schools despite lower scores. I have heard of a minority student who received a 1320 on the SAT and got into Princeton around where I live. The only challenge for you, in my opinion, would be Georgetown but your legacy will definitely help you. Good luck!

UNC-Chapel Hill will be difficult as a non-resident unless substantial consideration is given to your URM Hispanic status.

Georgetown & UNC are unlikely.

NYU will be expensive if you are offered admission.

BC is a match.

FSU & Fordham should admit you.

University of Florida should accept you.

If NYU is stern (as I assume), that’s probably a reach RD.
Fordham should be solid match.
BC probably a match.
UNC for OOS and Gtown reaches.
Never looked at Florida schools so can’t comment on those.
