should also mention I’m hispanic and a male. Legacy at NYU but I’m not sure if I’m going to apply.

accidentally also wrote “projected” for my senior courses. I am a senior right now

Your GPA is right below the admission average at UMich while your SAT score is below the mid 50 for admission, it would be a reach for you. Try to bring up your test score a little bit for a better chance.

5

I think you are in good shape for all of them. Your ECs are stellar and your GPA and SATs are well within the 25-75% range for all of these schools. The most difficult will be Lehigh, Tulane, U of Michigan and U of Miami, so be sure to show a lot of interest in and knowledge of those schools. Best of luck to you!

@NJDad68 @billcsho thank you both for responding and for giving me advice!

Easy admission to NYU Fordham Maybe Nova (apply undecided) rejection from unich and huge scholarship to Miami (fl)

@FedMaster thank you very much for responding! Umich was my reach and i really want to apply to nova for business but i know it’s very competitive, so we’ll see

University of Michigan - Ross is tough to get into. While your GPA is on par, your SAT may drop you out of reach, but maybe not. It’s still a possibility, as I like your ECs for business, but I’ll guess rejected. about a 40% chance of acceptance.
Northeastern - I’ll say accepted
Fordham - Probably accepted, is their business good?
UofMiami (FL) - Accepted
Providence - Accepted
Tulane - Probably accepted
Lehigh - Probably accepted.
Holy Cross - Probably accepted
Villanova - Probably accepted, but business there is competetive so it’s a toss-up

You’re a solid applicant, you might be able to reach a little higher with where you’re aiming. Add in a few reachier schools, maybe. WUSTL still has their regular decision application open, so do some other schools. I’ll guess you get into a lot of the palces you applied. Good luck!

Chance me back?

@Plumbus thank you for responding and I’m hopeful for many acceptances! we’ll see what happens. I’ll look into WUSTL. I’ll chance you back now!

Remember to not just blindly “reach” for “higher” schools. The schools on your list are all very different from one another. Try to be true to your interests in terms of what each school offers and where you can thrive academically, socially, and in a locale that appeals to you. Best of luck!

@NJDad68 haha i just realized how different every school is from one another but i really do like and can see myself at anyone of these schools. Thank you again for the advice and help!
