<p>Looks like you're a senior, so obviously it would be too late to apply for this year...are you taking a year off or what?</p>
<p>Anyway, looks to me like you're in at GW, Maryland, Loyola, Villanova. If you're a sports recruit, NYU and Chicago seem good.</p>
<p>You're looking good at Michigan and Illinois, but one never knows for sure being out of state.</p>
<p>BC, Bucknell, Colgate, and Vandy would be "likely," but each seems to be getting more and more applications each year, resulting in a lot of rejections and waitlisting of even really good applicants. Same goes for Cornell, I guess.
Stanford's accepting like 10% of applicants these days, so that's a gamble for everybody.</p>
