Chance me for Ivy's - Homeschooled Applicant

Hey Guys,

With college season coming up, I am nervous but excited to see where I will end up. My main fear though is my educational background. The first two years of high school (freshman and sophomore years) I was in a public school, where I got a 4.0 UW and took 3 AP’s sophomore year (school doesn’t allow us to take AP’s as freshmen). However, for many reasons, I decided to homeschool the last two years, partly for me to focus on research and other time-consuming EC’s. This year (junior) I took 4 community college courses and took 5 AP classes online (UC Scout). All my courses were outsourced - I did not have my parents give me any grades. Still, I am extremely worried that colleges will not see my education as “legitimate” and I will be rejected from everywhere I apply.

Here are the schools I am thinking of applying to:

Princeton (I am legacy here)

Harvard

Yale

Stanford

Columbia

Dartmouth

Brown

Penn

Williams

USC

Tufts

NYU

Keep in mind these are the top schools I am applying to, I am not including safeties
