Chance me! Rising Senior - WA resident, 3.95/34 for Engineering, Poli Sci, Applied Math or Business

Your ECs are a bit different. Do you want to ski ? I’d assume not based on your list.

You needn’t take the test again. But you are 1 super score ping from a 35. U Washington and the UCs won’t see your test.

Where you should ED? Where, if you’re willing to forgo merit scholarships from other schools because many on your lists don’t give, that is 100% I’d be stoked to spend four years here. That’s where you should but note many/most don’t ED anywhere.

You said you have enough for undergrad but not sure about grad. A UW solves that problem and provides you a great financial safety net. There’s others that do as well - so you have money left for grad school.

Your have too many reaches and not enough of the others. And that should be reversed. Only Villanova on your matches is somewhat realistic and not a likely.

Also you need to decide Engineering or not.

So if money may be a factor and assuming you are full pay you might eliminate some with no merit offered. Why spend $350k for a Poli sci degree when you don’t need to. Ok that’s basically your entire list. I’d cut that portion in half.

Or add Pitt, Arizona (dirt cheap for you), CU Boulder, Minnesota - these are schools strong in all your disciplines and you’d get in.

You can also look at some solid LACs in engineering that aren’t quite as competitive but still high level schools such as Lafayette, Union, or trinity.

Good luck.
