<p>Cornell, Penn, Georgetown, and Columbia are definitly reaches unless you are a recruited athlete. I don't know much about the other schools, but I'd say you have a good shot at all of them. Good luck!</p>

<p>bjf, I believe you're mixing that policy up. Georgetown prohibits you to apply to Early Decision if you apply EA there.</p>
<p>In keeping with this principle, students applying under the Early Action program may not apply at the same time to binding Early Decision programs since they then would not be free to choose Georgetown if admitted. Students are welcome to apply to other Early Action programs or other Regular Decision programs while at the same time applying to Georgetown's Early Action program.</p>
<p>thanks alot, I knew that the Ivy's and Georgetowns are almost out the question reaches, but im applying to them anyway because you only get one shot at applying and I don't want to have any reservations about the process when it's over with. Thanks alot for your oppinions on the other schools though.</p>
