NYU - match-only definite if ED
Cornell University -unlikely (unless instate AG school applicant)
Northeastern - unlikely
Yale University _and the rest are UNLIKELY to work. Sorry but you need to focus on true matches and safeties. </p>

Georgetown University -
Columbia University -</p>

<p>What’s the weakest part of my application then?</p>

19

<p>You don’t have a strong hook, ie recruited athlete, musician, legacy. Sorry to say that there are hundreds of applicants with similar credentials. Have 2 sons in elite prep schools and found this truth out with son#1. Wish someone would have told us and he would have had applied ED to a true match.</p>

<p>So it isn’t worth applying Ed to Cornell?</p>
