Columbia- Its definitely a pretty sizable reach. Insanely competitive and your gpa and act are a little low for it
USC- Your stats are there but it’s very competitive. I think you have a decent shot. Hope for the best? Low reach
BC- Your stats are there and it’s a very stat driven school. I think you are likely to get in but maybe not. Match? High Match?
BU- Match
LMU- You’ll get in probably a safety but write a really strong essay! It counts here
Emmanuel- Definitely a safety
