<p>URM female with intended engineering major and on-par stats? Pretty darn good chances. </p>

<p>I’m curious though–your list has a bunch of big schools (UT-Austin, HYP, Notre Dame) and then some very small, liberal arts places (Williams) including a women’s school (Smith). Have you considered what kind of school you’d prefer? If it’s a small school, applying to a wider range of them would probably be a good idea (I’d suggest Swarthmore, for one–great engineering program). </p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>
