I’d definitely say Northwestern would be your best bet. Of course, all of the aforementioned schools are highly competitive and no one is a shoe in. Given your stats, awards, and EC’s, I think NW would definitely be the move. Feel free to chance me as well! http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/2019815-chance-me-32-act-3-9-gpa-minor-e-cs-run-own-e-commerce-business.html#latest

I think you would be accepted at both Northwestern and Vanderbilt in the ED round.

Vandy most likely. You could ED2 to Vandy and ED1 to Northwestern.
