<p>It seems like you love Massachusetts huh? hehe me too. I’m applying to almost the exact same schools, good luck :slight_smile: You have really good scores and I think most of the schools you’ve chosen are definite matches (BC, BU, Northeastern, Villanova, Brandeis) but I’m not sure about the rest. I would say low reach for Cornell and NYU. I don’t know about Emory, Clemson or Fordham. Chance me back please? I posted mine today, thank you!</p>

<p>Boston College- match
Boston University- match
Fordham- match/safety
Cornell- low/med reach
NYU Stern- low reach/high match
Northeastern-high match
Brandeis- match
Villanova- match
Clemson- match
Emory-low reach</p>

<p>You’re a strong candidate with a realistic shot at all of these schools. You have strong scores and course rigor. Youre UW GPA is going to be a weakness, but other than that your application is solid. Your ECs are a bit standard as they are likely not going to help or hurt you. Good luck!</p>

<p>Boston College: High Match
Boston University: Match
Fordham: Match
Cornell: Reach
NYU: Match
Northeastern: Match
Brandeis: Match
Villanova: Don’t know this school
Clemson: Safety…? Not too sure about this school
Emory: Reach (it’s been progressively harder to get in here, unfortunately)</p>

<p>Nice picking out of these schools! You’ve got a solid list of mostly matches! I commend you on that! :slight_smile: Good luck, I know you’ll get into a lot of these haha</p>

<p>Most of these schools would be high matches for you and you have a very good chance of getting into most of them. Your GPA may hurt you a little bit like at Cornell, BC, and NYU, but your SAT is good and you have a good chance of getting into most.</p>

<p>Thanks guys, I really appreciate all the chances. I’ll still be chancing back to anyone who chances me.</p>

12

<p>Tufts and Holy Cross are 2 great academic schools in Massachusetts.</p>

13

<p>I’m not really interested in liberal arts schools, although I would consider Tufts for economics. I really have no interest in Holy Cross though. I’m not too religious, despite a few of the schools I’m interested in.</p>

14

<p>I think most are matches/high matches besides Emory and cornell. I’d put them both at about a low/mid reach. Best of luck!</p>

15

<p>Thanks. What can I do to increase my chances for Boston College, hopefully making it a match, and bringing Cornell down to a slightly more realistic very high match/very low reach?</p>

16

<p>Boston College, Fordham, Georgetown and Holy Cross are all run by the same Catholic religious order - the Jesuits. Holy Cross just sounds more religious because of the name.</p>

17

<p>bc is a catholic school.</p>

<p>Boston College - match
Boston University - low match
Fordham - high safety
Cornell - reach
NYU Stern - high match
Northeastern - low match
Brandeis - low match
Villanova - low match
Clemson - safety
Emory - low reach</p>

<p>chance me back? :slight_smile: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1428396-chances-uva-tech-nyu-columbia-stanford.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1428396-chances-uva-tech-nyu-columbia-stanford.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

19

<p>Oh really? I knew they were all religiously affiliated, I just assumed that Holy Cross was more religious, for whatever reason. Either way, I’m an atheist. If I were to go to one of the religious schools I listed like BC or Fordham, would I be treated differetly, or are the people there generally very accepting? I’m also hoping that the curriculum doesn’t contain a large amount of religious bias, which I highly doubt, but I live near Bob Jones University in South Carolina, and I’ve seen a lot from there.</p>

<p>Also, what can I do to improve my chances of getting into those high match/low reach schools next year?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
