What top colleges are looking for:

*students at the very top of their school class and country

*High SAT/ACT scores

*Significant accomplishments outside of the classroom, things like service in the community, being a top athlete, having unusual success in the arts, winning national math/since competitions…

Being able to pay helps greatly at most. From your list above, NYU is much easier to get into than the other 2. Top 10% of your class and more moderately high scores can get you in there.
