Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Schools: Georgetown EA, UChicago EA, SUNY Binghamton EA, George Washington University RD, NYU Abu Dhabi + Shanghai RD, possibly American University RD.
Major(s): International Relations + Japanese + Korean Minor</p>

<p>ACT: 32 Composite (34/34/31/29/9w)
SATII: USH 770, Lit 640, Japanese in November
GPA: 100.38 weighted
Rank: School doesn't tell us, but definitely 1/~150

<p>Everything else:

<p>-Journalism - 3 years, Editor in Chief, Managing Editor </p>

<p>-Japanese Club - 4 years (Does going on a school trip to Japan count as an EC?)</p>

<p>-Model UN - 3 years, VP </p>

<p>-Will be doing yearbook senior year</p>

<p>-Community service - ~100+ hours for various walks, community events</p>

<p>*My school is based on the theme of International Studies (it's in the name of the school, actually) and it focuses on making us "globally aware" etc. Can this be of /any/ help?</p>

<p>Did I forget something?</p>

2

<p>Have you considered Yale-NUS? </p>

<p>Brand new, opening next year in Singapore.</p>

3

<p>I really do want to go to Singapore! I’m also thinking of applying to this English degree program at the University of Tokyo.</p>

4

<p>So, I guess not?</p>

<p>Hey, apply for whatever sounds cool. Yale-NUS kind of caught my eye, but I have no idea what the job placement or reputation of it will be because it’s brand new. Still, I’m sure Yale wouldn’t let it fall apart.</p>

<p>Apply wherever sounds fun! The only thing I’ve noticed on your list is that your safetyish schools don’t offer great financial aid (GWU, American, NYU), so adding a financial safety may be important. I have no idea if SUNY Binghampton is one because I don’t know anything about SUNYs, but just make sure you have one.</p>

6

<p>Would you consider GWU a safety-ish? Or at least match? This is the data I’m looking for right now :P</p>

<p>Binghamton is definitely my financial safety because I’m in state, but I really don’t want to go there. I’d rather take the debt and go to school in DC. American I still don’t know because it basically has no Korean courses and Japanese is limited (and no major). And I’m not doing regular NYU, just Abu Dhabi (which is basically free if you get in) and Shanghai.</p>

<p>srsly? Tough crowd :(</p>

8

<p>Chicago EA, Georgetown EA: Reach
Solid chances at other colleges</p>

9

<p>Is GWU as expensive as they say? Like NYU range?</p>
