<p>I really want to go to the University of Chicago...the only problem would be paying for it--I would need scholarships and/or financial aid.</p>

<p>What are my chances for both acceptance and scholarships/fin aid?
Also, I don't think I would actually attend, but could you chance me for HYPS? What other schools, especially near Chicago, could fit me as well (except Northwestern, I don't really like it that much)?</p>

<p>You might want to consider University of Illinois--Chicago, I bet you could get a good scholarship there esp. if you're in-state.</p>

<p>HYPS - Reach
UChicago - Match if you write amazing essays, because admissions is based heavily on essays.</p>

<p>Excellent chance if you do well with their application.</p>

<p>U Chicago: match</p>

<p>Amazing Match! (I would say maybe safety)lol</p>

<p>You should also apply to Northwestern, and WUSL, --and to schools like Univ of Illinois, NYU, and Univ of Rochester as safe matches</p>
