<p>Hey, I think your SATs are a bit weak for the standards of these schools. Consider the fact that you are an international student, so the average SAT scores for all the schools that you listed are much higher than the average score for all students. Include the fact that you want fin. aid…you may need a score of at least 100/150 points higher to call these schools a safety. Just my 2 cents.</p>
<p>I will focus more on schools that have PR (Princeton Review) selectivity on the low 90s and mid-90s and tend to be have more international students (percentagewise). You can check the <a href=“http://www.review.com%5B/url%5D”>www.review.com</a> to find out what these schools are. Otherwise, you may be unpleasantly surprised in the admissions process.
My recommendation will be to drop CWRU and NYU, Pitzer and UWashington and replace them with colleges like Macalester, Ohio Wesleyan University, Wooster and which tend to be very international and closer to your academic statistics.</p>
