<p>Schools -

UPenn
GWU
American
Tufts

UCs (Berkeley, Davis, SB)
USC
Vassar
Yale
Northwestern

Macalester</p>
<p>If I get into Gtown EA (it's my top choice), then I will definitely trim down my list.</p>
<p>Georgetown (EA): Low Reach (I think you have a great shot!)
UPenn: Reasonable Reach
GWU: In
American: In
Tufts: Reasonable Reach
Colgate: Match
Brown: Reasonable - BIG Reach (the UW GPA hurts you a little)
BU: In
Claremont McKenna: Match-Reach
UCs (Berkeley, Davis, SB): Reasonable Reach, In, In
USC: Match-Reach
Vassar: Low Reach
Yale: Reasonable-BIG Reach (you’re on the lower end for them… which is typical for 96% of students, lol)
Northwestern: Safety-Match
Kenyon: Safety-Match
Macalester: Match-Reach</p>
<p>Your ACT’s/EC’s/Transcript/Background are all fantastic and will get you into 95% of these schools. Your UW GPA is a little of a killer, but understandable given your transcript. Recs and essays are good… shouldn’t be a problem and I think you have a great shot at Georgetown (50-60%)</p>
<p>If I get into Georgetown, then I won’t apply to any of my safeties/low matches or any of the schools in CA.</p>
<p>Also, something that I forgot to mention is that I’m fluent in 3 languages (2 are native) and learning a 4th. I’m also a first-generation immigrant (became US citizen last year) with a very diverse and international background.</p>
<p>Georgetown (EA) – both of my parents went to georgetown, and my mom interviews there. they definitely look for dedication to at least a single activity, and you obviously have that. they also love leadership positions, and you definitely have an advantage coming from california and such a competitive school. that’s the only one i can speak for, but hoya saxa!</p>
<p>in general, though, you have a large advantage with the schools in the northeast, seeing as you are from CA. good luck!</p>
<p>Your gpa is a little low but I dont know the context since you have no rank. THat said, your SAT score is fantastic!</p>

<p>I think you’re fine for most of those schools. You could get in to Yale or Brown but those are more of crapshoots. I would say in at GTown probably.</p>

<p>Georgetown (EA): Low Reach… i see its really hard to get into, but with your stats AND EA… good sizable chance upgrade from high reach to low reach
UPenn: Reach, but as others say… its a reasonable one.
