Vandy: 60%
Macalester: 90%
Hillsdale: 100% (guess)
Rhodes: 75%
UT Austin: 60% (cause yur OOS)
Cornell: 50%</p>

<p>Good Luck Bro</p>

<p>You’re pretty much in at Hillsdale. I can’t say too much about the others, though.</p>

<p>Thanks guys.
I’m pretty satisfied with Macalester if I can get any money ha.</p>

<p>FYI ACT score can be combined.

<p>Not all of these schools can Superscore the ACT. My ACT score is just like yours. 32 without super, 33 with.
Princeton - high reach
Duke - reach
Vandy - low reach
Macalester - match
Hillsdale - match
Rhodes - match
UT Austin - match
Cornell - low reach</p>

<p>Chance me back? <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/785697-what-my-chances-these-schools.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/785697-what-my-chances-these-schools.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>If you need significant aid, you need to choose schools known to give it to internationals. Mac may or may not give you much, I’d suggest more schools at or below that level.</p>

<p>From what I’ve heard Cornell do give quite an amount of money but yea I’m switching out Princeton and UT Austin and I’m thinking Emory.</p>

<p>Princeton: High Reach
Duke: Reach
Vandy: Low reach/ High match
Macalester: don’t know
Hillsdale: don’t know
Rhodes: IN
UT Austin: don’t know
Cornell: low reach/ high match
Emory: low reach/ high match</p>

<p>Princeton-reach
Duke-reach
Vandy-don’t knoe
Macalester-most likely safety
Hillsdale-in
Rhodes-don’t know
UT Austin-don’t know
Cornell-low reach</p>

<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>Princeton - 5 or 10%
Duke - 25%
Vandy - 40-50%
Cornell - 25%</p>
