If you are a US citizen , you dont really fall in the international category.I think they may weigh you separately. You will be compared in context of your high school as well as in context of the local pool …I think. Are you in a IB program? I think Stanford is need aware, so full pay is good for Stanford. Others are need blind so maybe doesn’t matter. If you are good, you are good and they will make it work. You need to have almost perfect GPA for the top ivy’s. Again have some safety schools as well. I know some local kids who did get in weren’t necessarily IO qualified but they all had some thing that distinguished them (leadership, sports, regional/national awards). If you are swimming for State level, can you do that being a US citizen?
