I like how you have a passion that you want to fulfill. Driven people are always the successful ones!
You have a good choice of colleges, I like all of them. I was driven to apply Emory ED before when I wanted to major in business/economics. I dropped my USC application because it is too much of a reach for me. No UCs for me since too expensive lol. UPenn is beyond my reach, my sister did apply ED there and was dissapointed. Are you applying honors for UW?
As for me, I have applied early action ga tech, umich and unc chapel hill. I’ve done ED NU and aiming for regular decision UW and U of Rochester.
