<p>My College Choices are:
Loyola University Chicago
Depaul University
Boston University
Purdue University
Ohio State University</p>

<p>Can I get in to any? are most reachable?</p>

<p>Which of those listed are your safeties?</p>

<p>safety is depaul</p>

<p>bumpppppppp</p>

<p>I think you can probably get into Loyola Chicago. I know people who have similar stats who were accepted there. Not terribly sure about any of the other places you’ve listed. Good luck, though.</p>

<p>thanks alot. i hope i can get in</p>

<p>anyone else? please help</p>

<p>loyola- maybe, a bit of a reach unless you get your act up a decent amount, i think their middle 50% range is 24-29
boston u-another reach, i’ve seen it called a fallback school for kids applying to ivy, their average act is 28
depaul-more of a match than a safety
don’t know about the rest, but it is important that your act score goes up to help stregenth ur chances at these schools and ur extracurriculars are good though</p>

<p>Well I got into depaul and purdue. Can I get into any of the others?</p>

<p>Loyola University Chicago: high math
Boston University-low reach
Purdue University-match
Ohio State University-high match</p>

<p>You’ll be okay at OSU (which is a great school, btw), and I pretty much agree with the other people on your other school. Congrats on Depaul and Purdu!! (both are excellent schools).</p>

<p>Hopefully your ACT score was greatly improved over your last one. If you can get an interview at the other schools if you’re interested enough, that would be great!</p>
