<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>I would say all your friend needs are decent essays to get into Columbia. NYU is a low match/match.</p>

<p>Thanks for responding! Any other input?</p>

<p>Your friend will definitely get into NYU and Fordham. Columbia is a little wishy-washy seeing how competitive it is and that your friend doesn’t have insane ECs. His SAT and GPA is right up there or above the par for Columbia though! So I would say Columbia is a decent shot. Please chance me back.</p>
