How much chance would I have as an international student.

<p>I currently attend one of the most prestigious international school in my country. Due to the school size, only a few are admitted and everybody are competitive. However, when I checked the stat the average people those who are admitted to my dream school in my country was around 10~11. SO I am currently freaking out and I am afraid that I am not qualified to get in. The following is my stat:</p>

<p>GPA: 92/100 uw
Ranking: Not Ranked
ACT: 35
PSAT: 234 National Merit Finalist (Since I don't have citizenship, this does not work)
SAT II:
- Biology: 800
- Physics: 800
- Chemistry: 800
Advance Placement: 8 including senior year, but outside of school 4 more (non-credit)
IB MYP Certification (My school provided both AP and IB at the same time)</p>

<p>Awards:
- Honors Roll
- Certificate of Completion: Code Academy
- Demonstration Award</p>

</ul>

<p>I want to apply to the following:</p>

<p>Columbia University
Duke
UNC
Texas Austin
University of Wisconsin-Madison
George Washington University</p>

<p>I know that Columbia and Duke are extreme reach, but the main reason I chose these colleges is because they have science institution program that attract me: kinesiology. </p>

<p>Thank you for any comment ! thank you !</p>

<p>Columbia: Reach
Duke: Reach
UNC: Reach (since you’re an international student, it’s almost the same as trying to get into Duke)
UT-Austin: Match
UWI: Low match
GWU: Low match</p>

<p>@Catria‌ Thank You so much!</p>

<p>Will you be full pay or have financial need? That could make a very big difference in your admissions chances to those schools as they may well be need aware for international admissions. It can also depend on how many kids your country sends here to this country for college, and to those particular schools, because there are sometimes quotas per country, either formal or informal. Looking at the past admission rates to these types of schools, that your high school has is going to be your most useful info source.</p>
