<p>Now we get to the schools. If there is a school that is a reach, could you possibly suggest what is needed to be done to increase my chances?</p>

<p>Schools:
Penn State University Park (legacy) (already applied)
University of Michigan (early action)
Colorado College (early action) (sister is currently enrolled here)
NYU (RD)
Wake Forest (possibly ED) (My Interview went very well.)
Lehigh (ED if I dont apply to wake ED) (double legacy)
USC (RD)</p>

<p>Thanks. If you chance me I will try to return the favor.</p>

<p>I think you have a good chance at all of these schools. Have you visited any of them? Do you like Wake Forest or Lehigh better?</p>

<p>What do you expect to get on your ACT? Is Penn State your safety?</p>

<p>I have visited both. I really liked wake, but I visited when the students werent there so I didnt get a feel for them. I have heard that it is very preppy and conservative, which has me worried a bit. I also loved lehigh, so Im very torn. Im expecting a 31 and Penn State is my safety.</p>

<p>Bump this ill chance back</p>

<p>@Prospy01, maybe you should consider staying overnight at those colleges to get a better feel for the campus life…?</p>

<p>bumppppppp</p>

<p>Apply Lehigh ED! I think you’ll get in! Good luck!</p>

<p>I would say Michigan and USC are your reaches. Not unattainable but still reaches. Basically increase your scores, they aren’t good enough for either.</p>

<p>thanks guys, bumpp</p>

<p>bumpppp this up</p>
