<p>I’m Nigerian too haha. I don’t really see any chance for you at Cornell, Dartmouth, UNC or Northwestern with that SAT score. Maybe if you can raise it to 2100 you have a shot.</p>

<p>Your extra-curriculars look very solid though, and a 3.6 GPA is good enough for Ivy considering your URM status. </p>

<p>Basically just get that SAT up in October lol. Consider ED for your first choice.</p>

<p>On another note: What culture are you from in Nigeria? Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo, other? I’m Igbo, just curious lol. I live in Canada.</p>

<p>If you got your SAT up to an 1850, I’d say you’re in at Penn, Binghamton, UNC, and even UofM. A 1950 would make Cornell a match for you. And a 2000+ would have you in at at Cargie Mellon and Cornell. Dartmouth will probably continue to be a reach until you achieve a 2100+.</p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>
