University of Cincinnati is a safety for you. The others are matches. Ohio State MIGHT try to get you to attend one of their satellite campuses, but I think you could be admitted to the main campus. This is all assuming there isn’t something bad as far as the schools are concerned about you coming from Belgium. I know nothing of the education there, so I don’t know if that helps or hurts you.

Good luck!

thank you :slight_smile: Belgium is actually ranked before the US in general education, so that shouldn’t be a problem
