<p>id say its a bit of a toss-up. you have very good ECs, but you GPA and SATs are just a liiiitle bit sub-par. with a great essay and some good recs though, id say you have a pretty solid chance of acceptance. you seem to be the average columbia acceptee (harvard is a bit of a stretch though) <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1219166-chance-cornell-communications-major.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1219166-chance-cornell-communications-major.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>You’re a pretty average “Ivy-bound” applicant until you look at your double minority status. I hate to say this, but it really looks like it may set you apart from the thousands of similar applicants. Good luck; you’ve got a great shot at Columbia ED and the others!</p>

<p>Yup, no offense, but you wouldn’t have all the Ivies as match schools in my opinion if you weren’t Hispanic, but you’ve got to take every advantage you get.</p>
