Chance Me / Match Me!

<p>I need to submit to my school by tomorrow my college list basically. I need more match/safeties so I was wondering if someone could tell me my chances at Boston College. Here's brief stats I guess.
Rank: 1/700 (just some public school)
g.p.a: uw: 4 weighted 4.95
SAT 700/750/690
ACT 35
national merit semifinalist, varsity cross country 4 years, drama productions, constitution team, host of other junk I don't have time to type lol.
white male from Chicago</p>

<p>Is Boston College a reasonable safety, or is it match or match-reach? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!!</p>

<p>i really don't have much experience with rating a school, but i think your chances are pretty good...dunno if you're instate/out of state, but either way i think it would be at least a match if not a reasonable safety...</p>

<p>BC is a terrific school, but apply with caution if you need financial aid. BC was recently described as one of the colleges that practices admit/deny. (admitting kids but then not coming close to meeting EFC). I personally know of several New England kids, valedictorian/national merit finalists etc accepted EA by BC only to be devasted to receive little to no aid.</p>
