UChicago meets demonstrated need, even for those applying ED. Not sure if you are technically “low income” but have you looked into QuestBridge? If you qualify they will work to match you with some pretty great schools, including, potentially, UChicago.

UChicago will also be very aware of your Chicago area school and the grading scale, difficulty level and so forth. You should sit down with your guidance counselor and have a heart-to-heart regarding your chances for UChicago (based on what he/she has seen with other students from the school), chances for QuestBridge, and so forth. Enlist your GC’s help in forming a set of reach, match and safeties.

Good luck to you!
