Hi everyone 
I’m a high school junior who’s having a hard time deciding on universities to apply to, so any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Stats:
SAT: taking in a month; expect around 1450
SAT II: Planning to take Math II and Physics
GPA: 94/100
APs: French and Statistics this year (aiming for at least a 4). Next year, I plan to take AP Calc BC, Bio, and Chem.
ECs:
-President of Computer Council (takes care of school technology; have raised a few hundred dollars for charity)
-Robotics team (2 years; won city championships)
-Volunteered at a hospital (~200 hours)
-Math tutor
-Prefect
No major awards (I’ve always placed top 25% in the Waterloo math contests, if that counts for anything? haha)
School type: Public
Race/Gender: Asian F
Prospective Major: Engineering
It should probably be noted that I’m living in Canada right now, although I am a US citizen. I’d like to apply to universities from both countries to expand my horizons a bit 
Thanks!!
oh forgot to add that I qualify for financial aid. & bump!
Damn your life is going to be hell if you’re planning on taking AP Chem and AP Bio in the same year :))
Since you live in canada, you won’t get in-state tuition/acceptance rate benefits, so that’s a con. I would suggest JMU, VT, Purdue, Penn State, or Drexel. All great schools with pretty high acceptance rates. I presume you have some “dream”/reach schools that you would like to attend, so apply to those as well.
Don’t know much about Canadian universities.
hahahha next year will be pretty stressful indeed :((
Thanks for the tips and recs though! btw, I’m looking the suggested schools up and they do have very high acceptance rates 
No problem! Forgot to mention that one unique thing about Drexel is their co-op program, which is essentially a work-study in your major, and are also often paid ones at that. It’s really interesting, and definitely a great safety school if your grades/scores are high.
@ClarinetDad16 haha of course, the most prestigious Canadian universities. I’m going to give them a go :)>-
@sona7662 ah cool, thanks again! actually sounds really similar to Waterloo’s co-op program up here in Canada 
I would definitely recommend Penn State as a good match/safety school, and I also highly recommend Drexel for engineering It’s where my mom went and she loved it!
I would recommend Cal Poly San Luis Obispo as well for a good match/ safety. It has a good reputation for engineering on the west coast and its in California, because of that it has strong ties with Silicon Valley
If you are a dual citizen Canadian universities would make financial sense unless you are aiming for top 20 US schools.
How much can you afford? Drexel is going to be close to $70K per year, and only going up. I think you can get a similar education at a much more affordable school. I recommend looking into Virginia Tech, University of Pittsburgh, University of Texas, Penn State, University of Maryland, University of Michigan and Ohio State. Of course, I recommend finding some reach schools and I don’t know much about Canadian universities, but I think the ones I listed are good fits for you.
A bit late, but thank you everyone for all the recs
I’ll definitely look into costs (for both Canadian and US unis) more
