Chances of getting into higher tier colleges

Chance Me / Match Me

<p>Would I have any chance of getting into some of the higher tier colleges for either finance or accounting? I’m mainly interested in finance at this point.</p>

<p>Schools I’m interested in: Pennsylvania, Northwestern, Boston College, UVA, Stanford, Columbia, Duke</p>

<p>My dad went to UVA for college and medical school and my Grandfather went to Yale if that makes any difference, although I doubt it does.</p>

<p>GPA unweighted: 3.85</p>

<p>7 AP classes, 10 Honors</p>

<p>ACT: 33</p>

<p>Extra Curricular: national honors society 3 years, 160 hours of community service (helping with community recycling projects, feeding the homeless locally, packaging food at organizations like kids against hunger), 4 years of lacrosse, avid skier (probably doesn’t count for anything), winner of an award at my school given to the top economics student for the semester.</p>

<p>So, do I have a chance at getting into any of the more prestigious schools?</p>

<p>So should I apply and hope for the best to those top schools? Or is it not even worth my time applying?</p>

<p>Boston College is not in the same category of the other schools. BC is also a Catholic school like Notre Dame and Holy Cross.</p>
