Chances at BC, BU, Babson, Fordham, Villanova, Northeastern, University of Richmond, Wake Forest

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

Stats/information:
Applying to Arts and Sciences for all of these schools accept Babson, which is only business

So far accepted to UMASS Amherst(EA)

Legacy applicant at BC. Mom went there and my brother currently attends.

UW GPA: 3.4. W GPA: 3.9
SAT: 1370
ACT: 28(Not Sending)

ECs: Don’t feel like listing them all out, but they’re decent, not spectacular. Not really any awards though.

Essays: 10/10 in my opinion. Common app essay was about overcoming open heart surgery prior to junior year. My supplements for BC and BU were exceptional and highlighted my connection with Boston and how I can add to the community.
Recs: Counselor Rex: anywhere between 7 to 10 out of ten. Both teachers at around a 8 out of 10

I completely understand that most of these schools will be reaches due to my low GPA and average to slightly below average test scores for these schools. On the other hand, I feel like I will get into at least one of these schools. Am I being too unrealistic? I think Fordham is a match, but are the rest purely dreams!
Thanks!

Hmmmn. Where have similar stat kids from your HS gotten accepted?

I think you have a very good shot at BC and BU, probably around 65% that you get into one of these.

50/50 at Fordham, Babson and Northeastern

Nova/Richmond/Wake probably 25 - 33%

On naviance my GPA and test scores match up pretty well with the average other students who have been accepted to these schools. Since I go to school in MA, there is not a lot of data on the schools down south. Thanks for the input!
