<p>Ethnicity: Indian (female) - born in Saudi Arabia moved here at age 2</p>

<p>Applied To:</p>

<p>Penn State University Park
University of Pittsburgh - Already Accepted :]]
New York University (reach, i know, but one of my favorites)
Boston University (heard alot about grade deflation :/)
Northeastern University (my #1 I think, love the co-op)
Drexel University (dont like it much, applied because they let me do it for free)</p>

<p>Please tell me my chances, especially for Northeastern and NYU</p>

<p>I live in Reading, PA but Im pretty sure I dont want to go to a state school. I want a big city (NYC or Boston) and lots of diversity, as I am Indian and PA is full of...white pennsylvanians (same goes for PSU and Pitt). Not that it is a bad thing, I would just like different types of ethnicities and lots of diversity!</p>

<p>my #1 choice is also Northeastern University and I also applied to drexel because it was for free and they have the co-op. I would say that you have a pretty good chance at Northeastern University, but you never know because Northeastern University is getter better and harder to get into each year. I think that you have a better shot at Penn State than Northeastern. I wish you the best of luck because I also want to get into northeastern</p>

<p>New York University-reach
Penn State University Park- low reach/match
Boston University-match
Northeastern University-safety</p>

<p>You're definitely in at Northeastern. It's the second worst ranked on your list. I think you might want to aim a little higher than some of the schools you are applying to. Honestly, you are overqualified for northeastern and drexel. In addition to Penn State UP(47) and NYU(33), maybe apply to Boston College(34), UIUC(40), Texas(47). You are a much more competitive applicant than Northeastern(96) and Drexel(108). Just check out USNews. Best of luck.</p>
