Hello,
I am applying to Macaulay at City. I am an international student. Is my chances significantly lowered? If now by how much is my chance lowered now? What percent of the freshman acceptances is composed of international students? Thanks. My stats:

Sat 2: 770 1c, 800 2c(770 the first two times and then 800 third time), 780 chem 640 bio(taken during soph).
avg: 94.6 including fluff classes like gym and relgion (catholic highschool)
APs: My school offers alot (9) but i only took APUSH in junior year and now im taking ap calc ab, ap physics B, ap GOPO as a senior and will send those grades to Macaulay. First quarter for gopo is 99, first quarter ap calc is 97, first quarter physics is 92, second quarter ap calc is 95, second quarter for physics is 93
Rank: 10-15%: 650 kids
ECs: Alot about piano (NYSSMA), Alot of tutoring disadvantaged kids, student director of recreation dep. at a nursing home, school/church chorus head pianist 4 years, student director at a community center where i tutor disadvantaged kids, nATIONAL Merrit qualifier, treasurer of a chem club outside of school,
Essays: Not the worst but not the best
Recs: The one from my math teacher was pretty decent i guess, but my chemistry teachers, from what i heard from other students, not the best since he’s not the best when it comes to writing. but he stil talks about my strengths etc.
I am an INTERNATIONAL STUDENT living in NY
I know the avg accepted to macaulay was 94 and 1410 but i feel like those numbers would be much different for engineering applicants.
My avg for math and sciences were all 100 in junior year and my avg showed upward trend. also would it help if the adcom found out that iM waiting for my green card? Thank you so much for responding if youre responding!
