<p>I don’t know if you are a match for any of the schools listed. I don’t want to be discouraging, but I think you should look into other options. Transfering from a cc does allow for some wiggle room, and I don’t think its impossible for you to be accepted by the likes of Cornell or Rice, but unlikely. </p>
<p>Depending on where you live, I suggest you first look into transfer programs. I know that my local cc offers programs in which students are on the track to go to either UCLA or USC. I think this may be common in urban areas. If you don’t live in one, I would look for schools that area near them. Maybe UT-Austin, UNC, UCLA/UCSB/UCSD, U Wisconsin, U Michigan etc. </p>
<p>For private schools, I do encourage you to apply to ivy league reaches but also other options. There are amazing schools that will offer the same quality of education. If you are interested in schools on the east coast, I think you should look into Boston University, NYU, George Washington University, or Syracuse University. Depending on what you plan to major in these schools may even be a better fit. They all offer amazing internship programs and have vast alumni groups for job hunting. </p>
<p>Other suggestions (target, reach, and safety) include: USC, Emory, CU Boulder, U of Miami, Indiana, U of Washington. </p>
<p>If possible, chance me. I’d be happy to give anyone advice or chance them back: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1617448-chance-me-please-i-ll-chance-back.html?new=1”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1617448-chance-me-please-i-ll-chance-back.html?new=1</a></p>
