<p>My SAT Scores range around 1180-1200. However my writing score is a little higher - on average 680. In total it's usually about 1850-1900 max. I have 92+ volunteer hours and many extra curricular activities. + I'm an international student from Canada.
My first question is will colleges focus on my writing score more since I'm applying for Journalism?</p>
<p>These are the schools I am considering (keep in mind that I'm aiming for a school in NYC):</p>
<p>NYU 35% 1250-1450
Fordham University Lincoln Centre Campus 43% 1160-1350
CUNY: City College 33% -------------
CUNY: Baruch College 25% 1170-1240
Barnard College (All Women) 23% 1250-1440
Syracuse University 51% 1090-1270</p>
<p>I've done plenty of research but I was wondering if any of you guys are attending these schools or have friends who are going there now? Or if you guys have other schools in mind that I should consider? I would appreciate any help THANKS!</p>
