International student seeking for help !

Applying to College

<p>Hello !
First of all, i would like to thank you for taking the time to read this ! I would like you to help me with something..
I am currently living in Morocco and attending a French High School (ranked among the best ones). My unweighted GPA is 3.6 (As & few Bs) , i am fluent (speaking & writing) in English, French, Arabic & Moroccan Arabic. I have taken Economy & Political science as a major (we had the choice between Econ, math & french literature)
I still haven't taken the SATs yet (planning to take them during the summer) along with the TOEFL..
I have had one of the best grades in English (Top 10 - out of around 100/120). As extracurricular activities, i can mention horse riding, swimming (not planning on pursuing them in college) & some volunteering.
And i also have had good recommendation letters for some teachers.
Plus, tuition is not an issue (not going to ask for financial aid)</p>

<p>I would like to know if you think that i have any shot of getting in Dartmouth college or any similar college ?? NYU ??
If not, which one would you advise me ? (I was considering Depaul U, Pace U, etc as backups)
Thank you VERY MUCH !</p>

<p>I think most colleges require some kind of official english exams for language proficiency reasons, so try to take SAT and meet the basic standard</p>

<p>In my humble opinion, good essay and good SAT score will probably ensure your seat if you’re not applying for aid. NYU is not a reach for you if you can get a score of 2000-2200.</p>
