<p>What are my chances at:
Duke
Wellesley
Mt. Holyoke
Boston U.
Boston College
George Washington U.
America U.
U. of Mary Washington
William and Mary
Middlebury
Northeastern</p>

<p>being from wyoming REALLY helps</p>

<p>Duke -reach
Boston U. - safe match
Boston College safe match
George Washington U. - safe match
America U.- safety
William and Mary - slight reach
Middlebury - slight reach
Northeastern - safety</p>

<p>In at Mt. Holyoke and U. of Mary Washington. I am not positive about BC - they are pretty selective, and some of their results were a little unexpect last year - I think your essays will be important there.</p>

<p>What are you interested in majoring in? Do you need a financial safety?</p>

<p>Most of those schools you've listed would love to have an applicant from Wyoming. I wouldn't be surprised if you're the only one (maybe 1 of the 5 at most or something) applicant from your state applying to each of those colleges. I was told by an adcom at Harvard that that was a HUGE advantage. They want all 50 states represented. Anyway, good luck. I'm sure you'll get into many, if not all of them.</p>
