Transfer to Northwestern

Hello!!! My goal for the fall 2018 term is to be at Northwestern University in Evanston. I went to a community college after graduating high school in 2017 for the year to build up my credentials for a year, and will actually end up graduating with my associates in the spring. Just wondering if anyone has suggestions/experience on this. I am retaking the ACT after getting a 29 on it last spring. Also, will be taking the SAT in Nov. My GPA at cc is currently a 3.5 but will be up to a 3.9 by the end of this semester if things go as projected. I know that my chances of acceptance, in general, are quite slim, but I feel like this is the place to reach out and get tips because I truly want to make it happen. I really have no idea what to expect in terms of the Northwestern transfer process.
