<p>Your other qualifications are more or less congruent with your ACT score, so just start with that score as a crude indicator of where you stand. Here is a ranking of colleges by 75th percentile ACT scores:
[College</a> Rankings - Top 500 Ranked Colleges - Highest ACT 75th Percentile Scores - StateUniversity.com](<a href=“USA University College Directory - U.S. University Directory - State Universities and College Rankings”>Top 500 Ranked Colleges - Highest ACT 75th Percentile Scores)
Schools with scores of 32 or below start at the bottom of page 2 (Barnard, Wesleyan, etc.) Look for schools on page 2-5 (or so) that match your other criteria (size, setting, etc). Possibilities: Boston College, UC Berkeley, Case Western, USC, UCLA, Michigan, NYU, University of Miami, Tulane, American, UCSD. These are mid-large urban/suburban research universities that ought to be “match” or low reach schools for your stats. Whether your family can afford them is another question. Several are public. As an international student, you almost certainly won’t get need-based aid from public schools. You might get some merit aid from a private school in this range (like Case Western), but to increase the likelihood of that, you probably need to look at LACs or less selective research universities.</p>
<p>Some of the schools on the first 2 pages are realistic reaches. Rice, Vanderbilt, Carnegie Mellon, Georgetown, and Northwestern seem to fit your criteria. The same caveats about costs apply to these schools. I would recommend also looking at some of the larger urban/suburban LACs that give good aid to internationals.</p>
