<p>Anyone at all?</p>

<p>Have a shot, definitely. Have you visited any of these schools that you are applying to though? They are all incredibly different and to be honest, I don’t think the person who would enjoy NYU or Dartmouth would enjoy a place like UChicago or Brown as much. Don’t apply on prestige alone</p>

<p>I don’t think I can. I live in Hong Kong, got some major exams coming up and am absolutely packed in the summer with two jobs and my extended essay.</p>

<p>You should definitely do more research then. A lot of these colleges have very different feels and environments.</p>
