<p>Thanks. Would it still be a match if I didn’t apply ED?</p>

4

<p>High match if RD
Match in ED</p>

<p>Do you have a safety?</p>

<p>umass-amherst(EA) for computer science. I mean NYU is at the top of my list and I kind of hoped to apply Early Decision to a reach school.
Any suggestions? If not, I’m fine with NYU.</p>

6

<p>Also, since I was told NYU was a match, I’m considering not applying to NYU and applying to Northwestern ED Double Legacy. Could someone chance me on that too?</p>

7

<p>Are you applying next year? If yes, I would apply to Northwestern RD since your legacy status will play a role anyway, and to NYU ED if it’s really your dream school. I’d also retake the SAT. Good luck! Chance back please? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1440723-chance-russian-student-columbia-brown-princeton-yale.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1440723-chance-russian-student-columbia-brown-princeton-yale.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>But I feel like my scores will still make it a super reach, and I’m afraid I’ll regret not applying to nyu instead. Anymore input?</p>
