You appear to be well qualified and your acceptance wouldn’t be surprising at all. Unfortunately, there’s no way to gauge your percentage chances. Ultimately, the outcome is a binary; you’ll either be accepted or not. Sorry I can’t offer more except, GOOD LUCK!

@sherpa Thanks!

Just FYI, Princeton has SCEA, not ED.

There is never a guarantee. However, if I may say this, I would be surprised if you weren’t admitted into at least 1 top 15 university. You have done admirable work to prepare for the college application season - apply to multiple schools and you will get into some wonderful places. I think PTon will probably want you, assuming your essays and recs are as distinguished as your profile and URM hook. Apply to more than just PTon at the tippy top - I’m convinced someone will bite. Best of luck to you!

@Senior2016M Thanks!

@ivydreams5056

You are a pretty strong candidate:

Grades - check
Course rigor - check
Test scores - check
Good /non-cookie cutter ECs - check
URM - check
SCEA - check

Now write some really great essays! Good luck.

If you are wanting to apply ED somewhere (can’t really tell if this was a mass copy and pasted post or not), then your application is on the level of Stanford, UPenn, etc. Princeton has SCEA as some before have mentioned. You have a great application and are a strong candidate anywhere. At this point, it should be up to where you WANT to go as far as where you apply early. Regardless, you’d be a strong RD candidate for Princeton, Harvard, etc. too. Good luck!
