<p>I’m pretty sure basing on your scores alone Boston University will be a match for you. I’m applying there too, and I’m not worried about getting in based on testing scores and grades which are close to yours</p>

<p>I’m thinking of international affairs and journalism too, actually and I hear NE has awesome co-op opportunities. NE is more or less the same rank as BU as far as I’ve heard</p>

<p>Columbia would be a slight reach I guess, but you have solid extracurriculars so I’m thinking it won’t be a problem for you to get into the school you want.</p>

<p>1) Fordham-match
2) Boston University-match
3) Boston College- match
4) Northeastern- lower match
5) Columbia- rough reach- not impossible!</p>

<p>Essays, essays, essays!! Don’t forget em! </p>

<p>Chance me back =)</p>

<p>1) Fordham: In
2) Boston University: In
3) Boston College: Reasonable Reach
4) Northeastern: In
5) Columbia: If you’re applying here ED, I can see the reasoning… but this is a HUGE reach, I’d go for something a little lower</p>

<p>Good luck! Please Chance me Back!</p>

<p>i know people who have applied to all of these schools so trust me :slight_smile: !
1)Fordham- In
2) BU- in
3)BC- Reach
NE-in
5)Columbia- way, way out there, you’ve got a chance at BC but columbia’s a *****</p>

<p>you’ve got a really lopsided list there, you’ve got three schools you can definitely get into and one decent reach and one out of this world reach lol, try and look for some targets, you can do better then fordham bu and ne in my opinion.</p>

<p>im just throwing out some schools to enhance your search so don’t take them all too seriously but bucknell, the ucs, colby, bates, u rochester might be good places to look around for some targets/ reasonable reaches.</p>

<p>good luck to ya !</p>

<p>Might look at Holy Cross.</p>
