<p>@Blacknusss I would say that Fordham is a low reach, UIaC is a mid reach, and Syracuse is a high reach. However, you will definitely get there if you continue to work hard!</p>
<p>Fordham University- low reach
Syracuse University- low reach (it’s mid 50 is 500-650 but it’s out of state)
CUNY Baruch- match
CUNY Brooklyn- match
CUNY City College- match
CUNY Hunter- match
CUNY Queens- match
U of North Carolina at Greensboro- match
Pace University- match
Clemson University- reach
DePaul University- match
U of Illinois at Chicago-match
Providence College- match
George Mason University- match</p>
<p>You’re pretty solid for most of these schools. I can read your essay if I have the time.</p>
<p>I think that the CUNY’s are matches whereas Fordham and Syracuse are reaches. Still, I think you’ll get multiple acceptances!
If you want, I can read your essay if you PM it to me.</p>
