<p>A lot depends on the reputation of your high school. But your academic stats are below average for Ivies, and extracurriculars are not overly impressive. I’d say Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Penn, and Princeton are out of the question. Hard to say whether you’ll be in contention for a spot at Georgetown or NYU, given the above information only.</p>

<p>What, you think you’re going to be elected after working on Wall Street? Do you read the papers. 99% will never vote for you! Anway…</p>

<p>Tyler, your rank and scores will make all of these schools except Arizona, USD and maybe NYU really unlikely. And the problem with USD and NYU is they are not good with financial aid, so getting enough aid to attend with a $58K income will be tough.</p>

<p>Your stats are good enough for consideration at some schools that meet 100% of financial need. I highy recommend you look at the list and find some where your stats are comfortably in range.</p>

<p>A few that come to mind are St. Olaf, URichmond, Macalester and Bates.</p>
