<p>Colleges

  • Pomona
  • UC [LA, B, SD]
  • CMC
  • Oxy
  • NEU
  • NYU CAS
  • Cornell
  • Colgate
  • Hamilton
  • U Mich
    And MIDD </p>

<p>Tell me what you guys think. I was suggested to apply to colleges of these levels because of my overall profile which looks great (school grades, recommendations etc).</p>

<p>It was Midd that I was deferred at…</p>

<p>So sorry you were deferred-are you retaking any standardized tests? Did you try the ACT, some people do a lot better on it.
I think you have a decent chance at any of your schools, better for Hamilton and Colgate than Midd, Pomona or Cornell. Why don’t you try Bates; it’s SAT optional and that is your weak point.</p>

<p>Are you an international student and do you need FA?</p>

<p>Yes and no</p>
