<p>Well you are right the rank is only average, and if you bump up your SAT scores that will help. I think your ECs are pretty good. However, no idea about those universities.</p>

<p>Well, you have a good shot at American, DePaul, and Northeastern. Don't know much about Seattle, SFSU and USF. But I think you have a decent shot at NYU. But you're going to have to write great essays and really try to stand out b/c you have a lower end GPA and average SAT score for NYU. Good luck!</p>
