Getting into Notre Dame and other schools to apply to

Applying to College
1

Hi I’m an international student from Belize,and I’m thinking about applying to Notre Dame pre health program but I’m unsure if I have a chance of getting in.

My SAT score is 2280 and my current GPA is a 3.97 out of 4.0. I current rank 7th out of 180. I have received first honors for all my years in high school. I have also recieved awards in different subject areas for which I had the highest score?
I am an Interact club member, I was in the school band as a freshman, I was placed in the advanced math class as a sophomore, I attended a young catholic mercy leadership pilgrimage in Ireland, I am an intern at the Belize Gastroenterology centre, I have done volunteer work at a centre for children with disabilities and I have volunteered to tutor children in math. I, along with other girls who went to ireland, are planning a charity program to implement at my school as well. I have
Do I have a chance? What other schools can I apply to?

Can you afford it?

You have a chance, but hard to determine how high.

Thank you.
Yes I believe that I could afford it

You’re competitive but it’s so selective you have to treat it as a reachable reach rather than a match. Holy Cross, Georgetown, would be obvious similar schools. Fordham : apply early for merit aid, it’s a good match.
For safeties, UScranton, John Carroll, Saint Louis University.

Most of all, run the net price calculator on each of those.

I don’t think those are similar in ranking. These are: Washington University in St Louis or WashU, Rice University, Vanderbilt, etc. These are usually the other schools that students apply to when they apply to ND. However yes, be sure to apply to safeties! Also you could post on the ND board to get more feedback. Good luck!
