Chances for NYU, Northeastern, UCLA, and BU?

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

Hi! I just would like to know my chances for getting into these schools. I am a rising senior.
ACT: 29 (I took it twice and got the same composite score but if superscored then 31, and I’m also taking it again in September)
SAT: 1300 (also took twice but the second time I got higher scores for everything which was 650)
GPA: weighted is 4.4 (my school doesn’t do unweighted)
My school doesn’t do class ranks either
Myself: Asian, middle-class, both parents retired and only have 2 year college degrees, my sister went to Rutgers

9th: 2 honors (bio and world history)
10th: 1 AP (APUSH) and 4 honors (eng, geo, algebra 2, chem)
11th: 3 APs (APUSH, AP Lang, AP Physics 1) and 2 honors (spanish, pre calc)
12th: 5 APs (Eng Lit, Pysch, Spanish 5, Calc AB, Bio)

My school breaks up APUSH into two years in case it was confusing to see APUSH twice. I pretty much took/am taking the highest courses offered except for Calc BC

extra curriculars:
marching band for 4 years
STEM club leader for 2 years
Environmental club secretary for 2 years
Jazz band
Percussion ensemble
french club
piano starters club

I had a summer job for two years as a camp counselor
I volunteer at my local environmental center a couple times
I helped with a scholarship blood drive in which I reached the highest goal and earned $500 to be applied to any school in scholarships

You should calculate your UC GPA and your Unweighted. Just type in “unweighted gpa calculator” and then
“UC gpa calculator” to find what you need. Are any of these colleges in-state for you? That would help you massively, since you won’t get into a pool of OOS state candidates which is a much tougher pool. However, we won’t know too much unless you get a UW gpa

If you’re OOS, only AP classes get an extra GPA boost for the UC GPA. SAT is too low for UCLA depending on the major and cost is going to be prohibitive.

I would suggest getting that SAT to 1400+ to make BU, Northeastern and NYU targets.

Add safeties/matches to your list. If parents are retired, do they have the resources to pay for expensive private schools if you don’t qualify for financial aid?
