<p>Not going to happen unless you can up your SAT by 200 points.</p>

3

<p>I cannot say anything for Middlebury</p>

<p>For NYU, I know a girl with a lower GPA and test score with less ECs accepted for this fall. She requires no FA. If you need a lot of aid, you better raise your SAT scores, as soze had mentioned. Is NYU need blind?</p>

4

<p>Your GPA (idk your unweighted, but you have a lot of B’s and C’s) and SAT scores are too low for Middlebury.</p>

5

<p>Applying normally to either NYU or Middlebury, your grades/scores put you on the very low end of the spectrum of candidates. However, your ECs are great. Have you checked out the Opportunity Programs at NYU? I really don’t know much about them except that they give very low income individuals a chance to attend… Middlebury might have something similar but I don’t know.</p>

<p>FYI If you can’t even chance yourself, why would I want you to chance me?</p>
