Colleges I’d like to be chanced on: Harvard (maybe ED), Yale, Princeton, Columbia, Stanford, NYU. (I have a bunch of safeties both in and out of state that I plan on applying to as well). The one thing I’m concerned about is how I don’t play a sport and if that will come back to hurt me. Will it? . Obviously no one can predict what a school like harvard will do but I’m just interested to see what people think my chances are at schools like these. Thanks

Of the most selective schools on your last, Harvard REA (not ED) as a legacy is your best shot. NYU is match, borderline safety. Great essays, and enthusiastic recs will help.

Decent shot at Harvard but only if you SCEA. Class president is a plus, and AIME qualifier is a slight surprise for your profile.

A very good friend of mine was also Harvard undergrad and HLS. All 3 of his kids were accepted to Harvard within the last decade with profiles that I wouldn’t consider any stronger than yours.

Good luck!

Another factor-how active is OP’s father when it comes to Harvard alumni association functions/annual giving.

If there is a record of annual donations and being active in alumni events, that’s a good thing. No school wants to antagonize an active alumnus by denying/deferring admissions to a child, especially one with a strong academic profile like the OP.

Harvard and NYU seem obtainable for different reasons. Too bad your HS doesn’t rank students - Stanford likes to go by class ranking and nab those #1s in their class. (Interestingly, Dartmouth has a Mathematics and Social Sciences (MSS) major. Data analytics is important in every field now!)
