I’m unsure what comments you’re seeking and am struggling to envision what you’re offering to these universities with a 2% acceptance rate for international applicants. Are you the best your country has to offer?

It appears that the OP has identified as a U.S. citizen.

Well that’s totally confusing. The OP is attending a HS in Nigeria, but lives in New York, and is a US citizen. That must be a helluva commute.

Perhaps originally from New York where parents maintain a home, but are temporarily living in Nigeria for a work assignment? It is confusing. There is also no info about course work, so there is no way to judge rigor, a major factor in admissions. And no info about budget, another major issue.

And no indication of current grade level. I suspect she’s in a grade where it’s too soon to ask about chances
