<p>Excellent GPA, decent AP Scores, and Above average class rank. However your SATs aren’t amazing especially as you’re asian. Your ECs are decent, no real commitment or anything breathtaking, but your community service is nice and your awards seem good, esepcially for piano, which does show your commitment so emphasize it even though you’re Asian. Send an arts supplement for piano. Now here are your chances:
Columbia: OUT (low class rank for Ivy and if you even want to apply I recommend a boost to atleast 2000+ but def. more)
Northwestern: OUT (same as above but perhaps A LITTLE easier, but still not good chances)
NYU: high match/reach
GWU: match
BU: match/low match</p>
