<p>Are you an American citizen? If you are an expat, could you be considered a Texas or California resident? The state schools you mention give a pretty big preference to state residents, so if you are not a state resident, your stats would have to be higher relative to the rest of those applicants. Seems like you’re right in the zone for Trinity. Not sure about the others–they may publish their admittance stats, but it would make a big difference if you were in state or out of state.</p>
