Chance Me? Easy to Impossible Colleges

<p>At the moment, my SAT scores are:
Math - 590
Critical Reading - 570
Writing - 600
Also, as of last year (junior year) my GPA is a 2.9 or 3.0. I’ve been on the cross country and golf team for two years. Also I’ve done a ton of community service, but I honestly cannot say how many hours because I am not 100% sure. I plan on applying to mostly in state schools because I am a New York resident, but out of state schools interest me as well. I want someone’s opinion on the following colleges that I plan on applying to. They are:</p>

<ul>
<li>The University of Arizona</li>
<li>Boston University</li>
<li>Colorado State University</li>
<li>Cornell University</li>
<li>Drexel University</li>
<li>University of Massachusetts Amherst</li>
<li>Ohio University</li>
<li>Pennsylvania State University</li>
<li>SUNY Canton</li>
<li>SUNY ESF</li>
<li>SUNY Fredonia</li>
<li>SUNY Oswego</li>
<li>University at Buffalo</li>
<li>Widener University</li>
</ul>

<p>Thank you for your time,
Justin</p>

<p>bump because id like to see this</p>

<p>Hi Justin,</p>

<p>Here is what I think about the following schools, and I have done a lot of research because my son is applying this year and has about the same stats as you do.</p>

<p>The University of Arizona - match. They only use SAT scores for scholarship and honors
college decisions.

  • Boston University - big reach. My D goes there. If you really are interested in BU, you should apply to the College of General Studies for your best chance of getting accepted.
  • Colorado State University - low reach. Write a good essay and it will help.
  • Cornell University - huge reach
  • Drexel University - low reach
  • University of Massachusetts Amherst - reach
  • Ohio University - match
  • Pennsylvania State University - reach
  • SUNY Canton
  • SUNY ESF
  • SUNY Fredonia
  • SUNY Oswego
  • University at Buffalo
  • Widener University</p>

<p>I don’t know anything about the schools I didn’t comment on. Good luck!</p>

<p>Thank you so much, elizabethh</p>

<p>Could someone please chance me on the SUNY schools? Thank you.</p>

<p>Justin, my son was admitted to ASU today. Just to give you some hope!</p>

<p>AWESOME! And thank you. I would ask you to congratulate him for me, but that would be a little strange. LOL. Very nice.</p>

<p>If you haven’t applied to ASU yet,you should - the sooner the better imo.</p>

<p>I was thinking of applying to Arizona State University, but I decided to just apply to one Arizona school, a.k.a The University of Arizona, in order to keep my parents from going insane.</p>

<p>Please someone chance me on the SUNYs? PLEASE?</p>

<p>I decided to take Drexel University off of my list because, according to ■■■■■■■■■■, I do not have a chance of getting accepted there.</p>

<ul>
<li>SUNY Canton - Safety</li>
<li>SUNY ESF</li>
<li>SUNY Fredonia - match</li>
<li>SUNY Oswego - match</li>
<li>University at Buffalo - low reach</li>
</ul>

<p>Cornell is going to be your toughest battle because of your gpa while Drexel and Boston U are reaches to a lesser degree. Try to show an upward trend in your grades, write some insightful essays, and get good recommendations; these will all strengthen your chances. Chance me? Chance an AA Female for Elite Schools :slight_smile: Updated Stats. <—Also include Yale with the other chance schools</p>

<p>thank you Sawdust and MorganSimone. I really need someone to chance me on SUNY ESF (SUNY Environmental Science and Forestry). And, by the way, I decided to take Drexel University off of my list and apply to James Madison University instead. So, if someone believes that I am wrong in my change, please inform me.</p>

<p>Should be in the sunys and also ua. I would say umass is a possibility. Cornell will be tough. Good luck!</p>

<p>thank you.</p>

<p>I ran into some more colleges. I decided that I also want to apply to a school in North Carolina. Please someone chance me for the UNC schools and NC State. By the way, to save time for any/everyone, I plan on studying veterinary medicine. I want to apply to no more than two North Carolina colleges. Thank you.</p>

<p>Please chance me. I am willing to chance back.</p>

<p>sorry everyone but I must bump this. I really need to know my chances.</p>

<p>The University of Arizona - Match

  • Boston University - Reach
  • Colorado State University - High Match
  • Cornell University - gigantic reach
  • University of Massachusetts Amherst - low reach
  • Ohio University - match
  • Pennsylvania State University - reach
    for schools in NC, i think NC state may be tough for OOS. Elon maybe? check it out. </p>
