Do I have a chance of getting in nowhere?

<p>I'm an international student studying in Dubai for the past 15 years. I'm Indian though</p>

<p>Here are my stats:</p>

<p>SAT 1: 800M, 700W, 650CR
SAT 2: 800 Math 2, 750 Bio M
TOEFL: 112/120</p>

<p>I do the full IB diploma, take 4 HLs (Math, business, eco and bio) and have all 7s (max possible grade) then 2 SLs (English A1 and Spanish Ab initio) both 6s</p>

<p>Essays are pretty good, Recs are amazing</p>

<p>Good work experience and research and things and ECs are pretty solid</p>

<p>So I applied to these places for finance:
NYU Stern
CMU Tepper
Michigan Ross Preferred/economics
Indiana (this I think I should get in but I'd rather go to one of the other places)</p>

<p>These are for economics:
Cornell
Northwestern
Virginia</p>

<p>So most of the places I'm applying to are very competitive and being an international student does not help. i'm really scared I'll get in nowhere and I'll have to take a gap year. What do you guys think? Thanks for your help</p>

<p>You should get into Indiana.</p>

<p>Are you applying for aid? That might affect your chances at some schools. NYU is awful with aid.</p>

<p>You have very good stats. :)</p>

<p>If you can pay for all of your costs, you should probably apply to more match/safeties besided Indiana since it doesn’t sound like you want to go there.</p>

<p>I’m not applying for aid, and well the only other business schools I can think of are USC and UNC. They’re more on the side of safeties? But I did get deferred from Wharton ED so my Mid year report needs to be stellar. I don’t know how much time I’ll get to apply to too many more.</p>

<p>Since you’re not applying for aid, your chances just increased a bit for schools that are need-aware for int’ls. :)</p>

<p>USC and UNC-CH are not safeties for anyone. they would be matches since your Math + CR is 1450. </p>

<p>It does look like you’ve applied to most/all of the top undergrad business schools. I was only suggesting some match/safeties in case you don’t get into your top picks (since int’ls have a harder time getting admitted). It just didn’t sound like you would like going to Indiana if that was your only admit. </p>

<p>UIUC, Purdue, UMaryland -CP, and UW-Madison would be some more matches/safeties.</p>
