<p>Your CR score is a bit low. Try to bring it above 700. NU has an admission rate of 12.9% last year. It would be a low reach for you if apply ED.</p>

<p>Well I know a person with basically your stats, maybe lower grades, but plenty more leadership positions and 2 varsity sports get rejected from NW.</p>

<p>Starting a program was good, don’t rate your own essay btw unless someone else did, but I would say you are a conpetitive candidate at a reach school</p>

<p>I have a much better stat than me. Go figures, you might get in. But it’s Medill, so it’s probably another story there.</p>
