<p>Are you in-state anywhere?</p>

3

<p>I intend to Major in either Computer Science or Economics</p>

4

<p>I am in-state for Binghamton. I am a New York State resident.</p>

5

<p>I think you can get into all of the colleges listed. I don’t see how Drexel fits in with the rest of the list as it is far less selective than the others.</p>

6

<p>^ I don’t quite agree with the above poster on the following:</p>

<p>UNC-CH may be a bit of a reach given your SAT score and that you’re OOS. They have 82% in-state students so you would have a bit of a challenge applying.</p>

7

<p>Yeah UVA and UNC are definitely reaches but the rest you have a good shot at</p>

8

<p>thanks everyone. I figured UVA and UNC were reaches but I feel that “you have to be in it to win it.” Do you think it is worth submitting my test scores to Holy Cross and Wake Forest given that they are test optional? I have Drexel there as a safety.</p>

9

<p>Also, are my chances higher at a lot of these schools because of Computer Science and Economics being part of most of the Arts and Sciences and Computing programs?</p>
