<p>Colgate- match, not in without question
Bucknell- match, but not in without question
Tufts
Lafayette- good chance
Lehigh- good chance
College of New Jersey
Rutgers
NYU
Emory- decent chance
U Delaware- very good chance
Haverford</p>
<p>Alot of the schools you're looking at are small schools which are fairly competitive to get into. They get lots of well qualified applicants like yourself but obviously they cannot accept them all. Don't take this the wrong way but your ECs aren't "great" but more "average". Same thing with your SATs, GPA, and rank... good, but not great. Depending on how difficult your school is, your courseload may be a bit weak(at my schools 4-5 APs is normal, exceptional students supplement with independant courses and college classes)</p>
<p>good luck, and like I said, don't worry about it- you'll get into plenty of them.</p>
<p>Colgate - I think you should be able to get in.
Bucknell - You'll definitely get in.
Tufts - It's hard to say, because some of my friends applied there and got rejected (and one of my friends who applied was ranked 4th in our class and had over 1400 on her SAT, not to mention the fact that she was a leader in some clubs)...but you definitely qualify as an applicant
Lafayette - You'll definitely get in.
Lehigh - You'll definitely get in.
College of New Jersey - You'll definitely get in.
Rutgers - You'll definitely get in.
NYU - I think you will get in here.<br>
Emory - Tough school, but you're well-qualified.<br>
U Delaware - You'll definitely get in.
Haverford - Tough school, but I heard that they took most of their early decision applicants, so maybe they aren't that selective. </p>
<p>Anyway, good luck! You have really good stats, so I'm sure you can walk into a lot of great schools.</p>
<p>lehigh? They say you'll definetely get in. I say you have a good chance, but it depends. If you are applying to engineering, it could be rough. But yeah, you have a good shot there.</p>
<p>You'll get into many of the places you apply, good luck.</p>
<p>yours is a tough call. I'm a little tougher but I'd say you have a chance at all your schools. Here goes:
Haverford, Tufts- reaches
Emory, NYU- reach/match, decent chance esp NYU but not a given for either
Colgate- slight reach but excellent chance
Lehigh, Bucknell- match but these can be fickle
TCNJ- match
Delaware and Rutgers-in for sure
but like I said you have a chance at all of above</p>
<p>thanks guys...I applied to the liberal arts college of each college/university listed and I did not end up applying to lafayette or haverford.</p>
<p>The concerns I have with getting into the small LA schools (Bucknell and Colgate) I applied to is that they have D1 sports teams. The sizes of their freshman classes are already tiny (906 and 725) respectively plus they have to take many kids for the 16 or so D1 teams they have...and then minorities n legacy n crap..so there are a lot less spots open. Agh!!</p>
<p>I think your class rank and number of APs is your weak point for the schools listed. As others have said, 5+ APs is the "norm" for most of these schools, and a class rank in the top 10% would be better. Still, if you applied to all, I'm sure you'd get into some....</p>
<p>Although all decisions will come from the admissions office, think the tennis coach will have a lot to say about if you get in or not, especially at Emory, Haverford, Colgate, Tufts, Lehigh and Bucknell. Good luck and keep us posted on what happens --</p>
